      Barbara Dickson - Only Seventeen


CAPO: 5th Fret




[INTRO:] C F C G C G C F C G C G F    C

[VERSE 1:]
                  G
Nobody hears when you're talking
C                   G
Too many tears have you calling
 F
"What can I do?"
                 C
Why is it no one seems to care
                      G
Where is the love you often wonder
C                   G
Too many nights you wait and wonder
 F
"How can it be?"
                        C
Why do you feel there's no one there
        G                F
If only you could steal away somehow
             G                         F
Maybe they'd understand, what's the use anyhow


[CHORUS:]
G           C
You're only seventeen
                      F
Lost in a world where you belong
G    C
Only seventeen
                      F
Caught in a dream you know is wrong
           Am      G/B     Am   G/B         F
And as the night begins to fall how can you win
G           C
You're only seventeen


[VERSE 2:]
                   G
Wishing and hoping sometimes praying
C                    G
Wanting to leave but you keep saying
 F
"Someday soon"
                C
Sooner or later you'll be free
           G                        F
You know inside your heart that you want to run
       G                         F
But it tears you apart 'cause it can't be done


[CHORUS:]
G           C
You're only seventeen
                      F
Lost in a world where you belong
G    C
Only seventeen
                      F
Caught in a dream you know is wrong


[BRIDGE:]
               Bb                     F
And though you try to laugh there's a photograph
       C                          G
That reminds you too much of your dreams
          Bb                           F
There's a chance you'll laugh with that photograph
        C                            G
Which reminds you of what might have been
F                C
Ooh, you're only seventeen


[INSTRUMENTAL:] G  C  G  F    C


[CHORUS:]
G           C
You're only seventeen
                      F
Lost in a world where you belong
G    C
Only seventeen
                      F
Caught in a dream you know is wrong
           Am      G/B     Am   G/B         F
And as the night begins to fall how can you win
