Brazzaville – 17 chords

Am                DmTake me to your house
    G                    C                        And show me to all your family
Am           Dm I don't care about
     G7                    CThe fool that it makes me seem
         Am               Dm'Cause I know that you're 17
      G               CAnd I'm just an aging dandy
    Am                 DmThe world is light and dark
    G              AmAnd we live in between

When I was a boy
I wandered the streets of downtown
Staring at the sky
And feeling that I didn't belong
In a world where the gentle seem wrong
And teeth get knocked out on Sundays
I lay down in the shower
And make it go away

     Dm G    C This fading world
    Dm  G  C  My lovely girl

And I know that you're 17
And I'm just an aging dandy
The world is light and dark
And we live in between

When I was a boy
I wandered the streets of downtown
Staring at the sky
And feeling that I didn't belong
In a world where the gentle seem wrong
And teeth get knocked out on Sundays
I lay down in the shower
And make it go away

This fading world
My lovely girl
This fading world
My lovely girl

'Cause I know that you're 17
And I'm just an aging dandy
The world is light and dark
And we live in between
