Lost At Seventeen

           C#             D#m     
Well, I've wasted so much time 
                                 F#
I've heard the birds fly south and 
back before my eyes could take a 
C# G#
look...
       C#                       
And my head's stuck between the 
D#m                         
notes and not the numbers and 
                 F#              
slumber to the thought of reading 
   C# G#
books.

       D#m
I just wanna sit beneath
        F#
All her comfort and belief.
            C#
Because the moon's got claws
            G#
And I don't wanna go to sleep.
        D#m
She'll always be my excuse
      F#
For a neverending use
           C#
Of helping me sit down
            G#
To find my thoughts in the lost and 
found
        D#m              F#
Cuz the moon's got claws,
          F#
And she's got me in her reach.

C#   D#m   F#    C# G#
Well, it was Friday.
And I planned out what to do
I was to get myself ahead
And not look back...
Now its Sunday, and I didn't do
Jack shit... I sat around and
Just felt sorry for myself.

And she's got me in her reach.
            A#m               
All day and night when I can't 
 F#
sleep...

        C#            F#
Cuz I'm lost at seventeen,
        C#             F#
Already tired of being tired.
          C#                  F#
There's a line for fools like me,
                  C#         F#
But "their" brain-style is required
         D#m
And that line won't catch me 
tipping,
        F#                   G#   
Cuz the moon keeps me from 
  F#       C#
slipping out of reach.
