At Seventeen
Ver acordes usados nesta cifra
C Dm
I learned the truth at seventeen, that love was meant for beauty queens,
G7 C
for high school girls with clear-skinn smiles, who married young and then retired.
C Dm
The valentines I never knew, the Friday night charades of youth
G7 C
were spent on one more beautiful. At seventeen I learned the truth.
Eb Dm G7
And those of us with ravaged faces, lacking in the social graces
Cm7 Fm7 Cm7 Fm7
Desp'rately remained at home, inventing lovers on the phone
Ab G7 Cm7 Fm7
Who called to say "Come dance with me" and murmured vague obscenities.
Dm7 G7
It isn't all it seems at seventeen.
C Dm
A brown-eyed girl in hand-me-downs, whose name I never could pronounce,
G7 C
Said, "Pity, please, the ones who serve; they only get what they deserve.
C Dm
The rich-relationed home-town queen marries into what she needs,
G7 C
A guarantee of company and haven for the elderly."
Eb Dm7 G7
"Remember those who win the game lose the love they sought to gain
Cm7 Fm7 Cm7 Fm7
In debentures of quality and dubious integrity.
Ab G7 Cm7 Cm7
Their small town eyes will gape at you in dull surprise when payment due
Dm7 G7
exceeds accounts received at seventeen."
C Dm
To those of us who know the pain of valentines that never came
G7 C
and those whose name were never called when choosing sides for basketball,
C Dm
It was long ago and far away. The world was younger than today,
G7 C
and dreams were all they gave for free to ugly duckling girls like me.
Eb Dm7 G7
We all play the game, and when we dare to cheat ourselves at solitaire,
Cm7 Fm7 Cm7 Fm7
Inventing lovers on the phone, repenting other lives unknown
Ab G7 Cm7 Fm7
that call and say "Come dance with me," and murmur vague obscenities
Dm7 G7 C Cmaj7
at ugly girls like me, at seventeen.
