Sharon Van Etten - Seventeen Chords

[intro]
A#   Gm

[verse 1]
A#                      Gm
 I know what you wanna say
A#                            Gm
 I think that you're all the same
A#                       Gm
 Constantly being led astray
A#                                 Gm
 You think you know something you don't

[chorus]
A#             Gm
 Downtown hotspot
                 F
Halfway up the street
                D#/A#
I used to be free
                   A#
I used to be seventeen
              Gm
Follow my shadow
                F
Around your corner
                   D#/A#
I used to be seventeen

Now you're just like me

[verse 2]
A#                                Gm
Down beneath the ashes and the stone
A#                                  Gm
Sure of what I've lived and have known
A#                             Gm
I see you so uncomfortably alone
A#                            Gm
I wish I could show you how much you've grown

[chorus]
A#            Gm
Downtown hotspot
                       F
I used to be on this street
                   D#/A#
I used to be seventeen
                   A#
I used to be seventeen
                 Gm
Now you're a hotshot
                F
Hanging on my block
           D#/A#
Sun coming up

Who's my shadow?

[bridge]
A#                 Gm
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
F                 D#/A#
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
A#                 Gm
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
F                 D#/A#
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

[verse 3]
A#                          Gm
 I know what you're gonna be
A#                          Gm
 I know that you're gonna be
       A#                      Gm
You're crumbling it up just to see
  A#                             Gm
Afraid that you'll be just like me

[chorus]
A#               Gm
Downtown hotspot
                         F
Halfway through this life
                   D#/A#
I used to feel free
                    A#
Was it just a dream?
                    Gm
Now you're a hotshot
                        F
Think you're so carefree
                         D#/A#
But you're just seventeen
               A#
So much like me
                  Gm
You're just seventeen
                  F
You're just seventeen
      D#/A#  A#
Seventeen
