C (x32010@1)                             F (133211@1)           CRowing (x32010@1)the campground up by the lake where we swam.
        F (133211@1)         C (x32010@1)We were hunting for snakes,
        F (133211@1)          C (x32010@1)   
But we couldn't find them.
C (x32010@1)             
Surrounded by nothing,
                   F (133211@1)          CBut (x32010@1)the nothing's surrounded by us.
              F (133211@1)       CBut (x32010@1)it's just me in my room,
F (133211@1)       CWith (x32010@1)my eyes shut.

(Chorus)

Am (x02210@1)  COh (x32010@1)when I was seventeen,
   F (133211@1)    C (x32010@1)       
My mother said to me
Am (x02210@1)       C (x32010@1)           F (133211@1)                    C (x32010@1) 
Don't stop imagining The day that you do is the day that you die.
    Am (x02210@1)     CNow (x32010@1)I pull a wanton carriage,
   F (133211@1)                 C (x32010@1)   
Instead of the horses, grazing along.
Am (x02210@1)  C (x32010@1)  
I was having fun.
F (133211@1)                CWe (x32010@1)were all having fun.

Am (x02210@1)C (x32010@1)F (133211@1)C(x2) (x32010@1)
C (x32010@1)                                              F (133211@1)      CMy (x32010@1)brain kicking faster than I can, but not fast enough.
F (133211@1)             CWho (x32010@1)is there to talk to
     F (133211@1)           CThat (x32010@1)won't lock me up?
   C (x32010@1)                               F (133211@1)                  CAt (x32010@1)least God doesn't judge me by the thoughts that aren't mine.
           F (133211@1)        CThe (x32010@1)snakes I couldn't find,
  F (133211@1)           CI (x32010@1)don't want to find.

C (x32010@1) Am (x02210@1) F (133211@1) C(4x) (x32010@1)Ohhhhh

(Chorus)

Am (x02210@1)  COh (x32010@1)when I was seventeen,
