[Verse 1]
G A# C
Late last night
A# G
I get a call from a so-called friend
A# C
He wouldn't give his name
A# G
Says he saw you with another man
A# C
Feels like seventeen years
A# G
It's only seventeen days
A# C
Since I saw the real you
A#
And I let you walk away
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
G A# C
You left me broken
A# G
You left me stranded
A# C
The way you play this game of love
A# G
It's just plain underhanded
A# C
I spent a lot of time
A# G
And I spent all my money
A# C
Don't want no other fool
A# G F C/E
To put his hands on you
G F C/E G G F C/E
Who you been talking to?
G F C/E G
Yeah who you been walking with?
[Chorus]

Seventeen, you're just seventeen

Seventeen
[Verse 2]
G A# C
They said I was playing with fire
A# G
I knew I had to take a chance
A# C
I had to take you higher
A# G
To a new experience
A# C
But little did I know
A# G
I'd never get that far
A# C
Girl, you know you put on quite a show
A# G F C/E
You're going to be a star
G F C/E G G F C/E
When you grow older, girl

You'll remember I told you, girl
