Tom: B
C# E
[Verse 1]
B E
I say, here stand I
B F# E
I can't do otherwise
C# E
But is it enough?
C#m E
And why'd you look so tough?
B F# E
Back at Patrick Park
B F# E
We stood in the dark
C#m E
In my beer-stained mind
C#m E
I said "please won't you be mine?"
[Chorus]
B F# E C# E
There's something dark hangin' over my head
B F# E C# E
I'm seventeen, don't hold your breath
B F# E C# E
There's something dark hangin' over my head
B F# E C# E
I'm seventeen, don't hold your breath
[Verse 2]
B F# E
On the high school lot
B F# E
You'd kiss me so long
C# E
But lessons don't last
C# E
When I'm playing you so fast
[Chorus]
B F# E C# E
There's something dark hangin' over my head
B F# E C# E
I'm seventeen, don't hold your breath
B F# E C# E
There's something dark hangin' over my head
B F# E C# E
I'm seventeen, don't hold your breatH
[Verse 3]
B F# E
Punch and first collapse
B F# E
Drunk at winter dance
C#m E
Looks in red dress
C#m
Oh, what an awful mess
[Chorus]
B F# E C# E
There's something dark hangin' over my head
B F# E C# E
I'm seventeen, don't hold your breath
B F# E C# E
There's something dark hangin' over my head
B F# E C# E
I'm seventeen, don't hold your breatH
