[Intro]
G A C G A C
[Verse 1]
G A
Back seat of her daddy's car
C
I was tryin' not to go too far
G
Kept thinkin' 'bout the words that the preacher man said
G A
Lightning flashed across the sky
C
I saw love in a young girl's eyes
G A
And that's a look you never forget
[Chorus]
G A
Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime
C
Don't it just fly by wild and free
G
Goin' any way the wind blew baby
G A
Seventeen, livin' on crazy dreams
C
Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
G A
Standin' on the edge of everything
G
Seventeen
[Instrumental]
G A C G A C
[Verse 2]
G A
Legs hangin' of a bayou bridge
C
Feedin' fish potato chips
G A C
And talkin' 'bout the mysteries of the universe
G A
Yeah, the world was somewhere else
C
We had the summer all to ourselves
G A C
And the stars went off like fireworks
[Chorus]
G A
Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime
C
Don't it just fly by wild and free
G
Goin' any way the wind blew baby
G A
Seventeen, livin' on crazy dreams
C
Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
G A
Standin' on the edge of everything
G
Seventeen
[Instrumental]
G A C G A C
[Chorus]
G A
Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime
C
Don't it just fly by wild and free
G
Goin' any way the wind blew baby
G A
Seventeen, livin' on crazy dreams
C
Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
G A
Standin' on the edge of everything
G
Seventeen
