[A] [E]
[A] If I could write a letter to [E] me and
[A] send it back in time to [E] myself at 17, first [A] I'd [D] prove
it's me by saying, [A] look under your bed, [Bm] there's a skull can and a playboy no [A] one else would know [E] yet.
[A] And then I'd say I know it's tough [E] when [A] you break up after seven months.
And yeah, I know you really liked her and it just don't seem fair.
[Bm] But all I can say is pain like that [E] is fast and it's rare.
[A] And oh, [E] you got so [F#m] much going for [A] you, going right.
[D] But I know [A] at 17 [Bm] it's hard to see [E] past Friday [A] night.
She [E] wasn't right for you [F#m] and still you feel [A] like there's a knife [D] sticking [A] out of your back.
[Bm] And you're wondering [A] if you'll survive, [D] but you'll make [A] it through this and [Bm] you'll see
you're [D] still around to write [E] this letter [A] to me.
[E] At stop sign at [E] Tomlinson and 8th, [A] always stop completely.
[E]
Don't just tap [A] your brakes.
And when [D] you get a date with Bridget, [A] make sure the tank is full.
[Bm] On second thought, forget it.
That one [A] turns out [E] kind of cool.
[A] Each and every time you [E] have a fight, just [A] assume you're wrong and [E] dad is right.
And you [D] should really thank Miss Franklin.
[A] She spent so much extra time.
It's [Bm] like she sees the diamond underneath and [E] she's polishing you till you shine.
Oh, you got so [F#m] much going for you, [A] going right.
[D] But I know [A] at 17 [Bm] it's hard to see past Friday [A] night.
Tonight's [E] the bonfire [F#m] rally, but you're [A] staying home instead [D] because if you [A] fail, I'll be
[Bm] Mom and dad [E] will kill you.
[D] But trust me, you'll [A] squeak by and get a [Bm] seat.
You're still [D] around to write [E] this letter to [A] me.
[B] You got so [E] much.
[A]
[D] You'll make good [A] friends.
He [D] should see [E] your kids and [A] wife.
And I didn't buy say [E] it.
Have no [F#m] fear.
These [D] are no.

[E] You got so [F#] much going [A] for you, going [D] right.
But I know [A] at 17 [Bm] it's hard to see past Friday [A] night.
How [E] is you study [F#m] Spanish?
I wish you [A] take a class.
[D] I wish you [A] wouldn't worry.
[Bm] Let it be.
[D] I'd say have [A] a little faith.
And [Bm] you'll [E] see if I could write a letter to me.
To me.
