Am F Dm G
Used to be a major scale
Am F Dm G
But the melody went stale
Am F Dm G
Musical cacophony let
Am F Dm G
Eensy Weensy spider free
You're a rich little boy
Who's had to work for his toys
You've got all the sensibilities
Of an upper class guy
Am C F G
No I'm not your little slave
Am C F G
No I don't twist and turn that way
Am C F G
Only got bad things to say
Am C G F
You're always asking what is up, up with me
Am C F
Could never tell you what happened
G C G Am
The day I turned seventeen
C G Am
The rise of a king and the fall of a queen
C G F C G Am
Seventeen, seventeen
(same chords as verse 1)
Oh, you are embarrassed of me
Cos I use my tongue freely
Bet you wish I couldn't speak
Cos when I do, you know
I tell you why you're being weak
You want a hassle free life
Go get your upper class wife
Oh, she's got all the personality
Of a lemon that has been
Truly sucked dry
You teach me how to behave
I felt you question the way
I was brought up as a baby
Well you don't know fuck about my family
Could never tell you what happened
The day I turned seventeen
The rise of a king and the fall of a queen
Seventeen, seventeen
C G Am
Never fell down like a princess
C G Am
I used to kid myself in this stress
C G F
That it was just how things
C G Am
Were meant to be
C G Am C G Am
Oh, seventeen, seventeen.
(original last verse)
Never fell down like a princess
But at least I picked myself up like a queen
