 I was only seventeen
E
 Life had me by the throat
A
 I could either stand and fight
D
 Or lay in foolish lies

 Take what's left and make it count

 Bruised heart and broken skin
D
 I buried deep within

 I'd do it all again

 When I was twenty-one

 Where was the promised fun?

 I had to grow up fast

 My world in plastic bags

E                             D
 Sometimes the closet ones to you, will leave you hanging
E                                D
 Sometimes the place you least expect, you'll find your answers
E                                   D
 Sometimes the things you think you own, will leave you empty
E                                D
 Sometimes the place you least expect, you'll find you treasures

 Now here I am

 With wasted years

 Summed up in private tears
