G G
Sirens wale and a flashing light
C
Nothin' better to do on a Tuesday night
G
But give me hell
G G
Where you headed, what are you out for
C
Don't see much of you 'round here anymore
G
I guess it's just as well
D C
Once upon a time you had it all
D C
You let everybody down
D C G
You're always seventeen in your hometown
Chorus:
D C G
Runnin' from your folks, runnin' from the law
D C G D
Runnin' from love, runnin' from your fears, runnin' from it all
C D
You keep on runnin' boy
G G/F# Em
You'll run yourself in the ground
C D G
You're always seventeen in your hometown
Her porch swing still looks the same
She probably won't even remember my name
Just like she didn't back then
Is she married, is she doin' fine
Does she know about all the nights
I laid awake cryin'
Just to know her hand
The door opens and I run away
Just like the same old clown
You're always seventeen in your hometown
(Repeat Chorus)
Nobody's gonna miss me
No tears will fall, no one's gonna weep
When I hit that road
My boots are broken, my brain is sore
From keeping up with their little world
I got a heavy load
Gonna leave 'em all just like before
I'm big city bound
You're always seventeen in your hometown
(Repeat Chorus)
