17, way too young for love

But I couldn't think of nothing else

I got mine, I never gave anything away

I was just thinking of myself

All the times you said you'd love me
G Dm7 C
I never gave you my reply
G B7 Em G
Had a dream it was over
Am7 C G
And I woke up with a pain inside
Am C G Am11
And I didn't tell you and I don't know why, why, why
C G Am7 G
'Cause you're so beautiful, so beautiful, so beautiful to me
C G
And you're everything that I'd ever need
Am G
It was a shame I couldn't see
C G B7 Em
And now that I've told you, I feel so free
C Cm7 G
'Cause you're so beautiful to me

Times moved on, I'm much older

I guess I've learned from my mistakes

For the first time, I think I know who I am

And I'm sorry that I made you mad, baby
C G Am7 G
'Cause you're so beautiful, so beautiful, so beautiful to me
C G
And you're everything that I'd ever need
Am7 G
It was a shame I couldn't see
C G B7 Em
And now that I've told you, I feel so free
C Cm7 G
'Cause you're so beautiful, so beautiful,to me

And if you leave me now, I won't be surprised
Em B7 C Am11
If you stay, well, I'll no longer hide

'Cause you're so beautiful, so beautiful, so beautiful to me

And you're everything that I'd ever need
