[Verse]
  A5
I met a girl in the 17th year
A5
She was a beauty queen
A5
I never knew much about life
A5
All the birds and bees were just 
simple things
       A                           
Flying round and round and round 
        G
and round
Em                             
Her tits were too small her legs 
                 G
were too thin
Em                                
I never thought that I would see 
         G
her again
Em                                
But now I've grown up, I've got 
         G
more sense
Em
I see her face sinking in the west

[Chorus]
  G               A           Em
I wish that I was seventeen a-gain
  G               A           Em
I wish that I was seventeen a-gain
  G               D           A
I wish that I was seventeen a-gain

A5
Talking about
A5
Talking about those days we had 
together (together)
A5
Groping in the back seat of my old 
man's car
A5
And getting down and down and down 
and down
A5                         G
And down and down and down
Em                                
But let me tell you how those days
          G
 are gone
Em                                
Now all the girls are the marrying
      G
 kind
Em                            G
Take me back to when I was 17
Em

 birds and bees
