D He gave me his words but they were half-hearted
AEm Still louder than the voice in my head sayin' "Run,"
G In my head sayin' "Run"
D But I was captivated, Yeah I was outsmarted
AEm Everytime he said "Oh you'll only live once,
G "Yeah we'll only live once"
EmA And I remember all of it like yesterday, waiting in the driveway
D Hoping that he'd come through
EmA With a passengers seat for me to jump into, I was
DEm Stupid and Seventeen, in the front seat of his car
GA Just letting my heart lead, 'Cause it didn't even know it's first scar
DEm And I'd look up at the horizon, thinkin' "nothing can touch me now,
GA I'll just look into those big blue eyes and it'll all work out somehow."
Em - ADD Em A G I was smarter than everything, Stupid and Seventeen.
D Well it's been four years now since it all started
AEm And now and then a part of me still wants to go
GD Down that never-ending dead end road
And for the rest of the world I'm so guarded AEm So what he does to me I don't know
G Yeah he just breaks me down
EmA I say I won't but then I do, see him in a crowded room
D I forget everything
EmA And I go right on back to being
DEm Stupid and Seventeen, in the front seat of his car
GA Just letting my heart lead, Like it doesn't even know it's first scar
DEm And I'd look up at the horizon, thinkin' "nothing can touch me now,
GA I'll just look into those big blue eyes and it'll all work out somehow."
Em - ADD Em A G Thinking I was smarter than everything, Stupid and Seventeen.
EmGD Well it's been drawn out for so long now
A Do I even know you, do you even know me?
EmG I guess the reason I've still been believing is
DA You're the only one who can make me be
DEm Stupid and Seventeen, but I'm tired of you waterin' me down
GA Getting out of your passenger's seat, I'm getting in the driver's side now
DEm And you can look in these big blue eyes and just don't think you're going to see
GA That girl who was sittin' here wide eyed hearing things she know you don't mean
Em - AD Cause you know I don't want to be, Stupid and Seventeen
DEm Don't go away, sayin' "I'll just keep lookin' at you now
G [Even] if we stay it'll work somehow." A It's not gonna make it, it's not gonna make it better I
DEmG Tell myself "just keep on looking at him now, maybe it'll all work out somehow"
A But baby I am done being
D Stupid and Seventeen
