[A]
[G]
Sirens wail in a flashing light
Nothing better to do on a [C] Tuesday night
But give [G] me hell
Where you headed, what are you out for?
I don't see much of you around here [C] anymore
I guess it's just [G] as well
[D] Once upon a time you had it all
You let everybody down
You're always 17 in your [G] hometown
Running from [C] your folks, running from [G] the law
[D] Running [C] from love, running [G] from your fears
Running [D] from it all
[C] You [D] keep on running, boy
[G] You run yourself [Bm] in the ground
[C] Always [D] 17 in your [G] hometown
[C] [A] [G] Her porch swing still looks the same
She probably won't even remember [C] my name
Just like she [G] didn't back then
Is she married, is she doing fine?
Does she know about all the [C] nights I laid awake crying?
Just to know [G] her hand
[D] The door opens and I run away
Just like the [G] same old clown
[D] You're always [C] 17 in your [G] hometown
[D] Running [C] from your folks, running from [G] the law
[D] Running [C] from love, running [G] from your fears
Running [D] from it all
[C] You [D] keep on running, boy
[G] You run yourself [Em] in the ground
[C] You're always [D] 17 in your [G] hometown

[D] [C] [D]
[A] [G]
[D] [G] Nobody's gonna miss me
No tears will fall, no one's [D] gonna weep
When I hit that road
My boots are broken, my brain is sore
For keeping up with their [D] little world
I got a [G] heavy load
[D] Gonna leave them on just like before
I'm big [Em] city bound
[D] You're always 17 in [G] your hometown
Running [G] from your folks, running from the law
[D] Running [C] from love, running [G] from your fears
Running [D] from it all
[C] You [D] keep on running, boy
[G] You run yourself [Em] in the ground
[C] You're always [D] 17
