Chords for You're Too Young - Lucy Spraggan - Lyrics

[D] _ _ [A] _ _ [Bm] _ _ [G] _ _
_ [D] _ [A] _ _ _ [Bm] _ [G] _ _
[D] She was [A] so clever for her age as a kid, [Bm] she took pride in [G] everything she ever [D] said and did.
She was born as [A] an angel, ticked every box [Bm] on the list.
How could something [G] so [D] beautiful end up like this?
She was brought [A] up in an everyday council [Bm] estate, had friends and family [G] who were never
[D] too far away.
[A] Even as a kid you'd sometimes lose the temper [Bm] and the [G] potential's being given, Gamma Chi
[D] Chi's in the centre.
[A] School was a struggle, result of her behaviour, [Bm] excluded [G] for the price, the same a [D] few days later.
Cos when she [A] got angry she'd flip, [Bm] she read you too, pretty for [G] the violence her mum always [D] said.
She had high [A] aspirations, she was chasing the [Bm] dreams she had, she was chasing the dreams
She didn't want her mum to see her.
Gamma Chi Chi's in a grave, she was grounded for 13, until her first [G] conviction at the
age of [D] 14.
She nearly killed [A] a girl just for looking the wrong [Bm] way, smashed her head so hard [G] against
the ground she was [D] unconscious for days.
That is [A] why I stopped the witness of [Bm] torture, whilst she [G] stamped on the head of a policeman's
[D] daughter, No [A] remourse for the course of a magistrate's [Bm] court.
It was everybody [G] else's fault of [D] course.
[A] What you doing [Bm] with your life?
[G] _ _ [D] _
[A] You are too young to [Bm] ruin your life.
[G] _ _ [D] _
[A] What you doing [Bm] with your life?
[G] _ _ _
[D] [A] You are too young [B] to die [Bm] here tonight.
[G] _ _
[D] [A] After that things began to slip out of [B] grip and the [G] grades were failing but she [D] didn't give a.
She was [A] top dog at school and all the girls were scared.
[Bm] And when she walked through the cupboard doors all [D] the boys stared, she craved to [A] be wanted.
She didn't care how, she [Bm] wanted [G] everything including this cab and [D] she liked.
Now he was nineteen, [A] like fighting a smoke in [Bm] the green.
He was a dealer, had a ream and she [D] thought he was a dream.
She got his number.
[A] Hey you okay, text back Chelsea [Bm] Price.
It was Monday, they [G] agreed to meet up on Friday [D] night.
She played it cool.
The [A] whole week she wondered what to [Bm] wear.
She planned her [G] jewelry, her makeup, her shoes and her [D] hair.
The days went [A] so slow, it seemed so [Bm] boring, but [G] before she knew it, it was already Friday [D] morning
She was nervous and [A] scared, but in a good [Bm] way, she had [G] no idea, that was an ordinary [D] day
She walked down [A] the stairs, it was 7 o [Bm]'clock, he was coming at [G] 8, she had to iron her [D] top
7 [A].45 came and she looked [Bm] gorgeous, Rapunzel let [G] out too early from [D] the fortress
[A] What you doing [Bm] with your [G] life? _ _
[D] _ [A] You're too young to ruin [Bm] your [G] life _ _
[D] _ [A] What you doing with [Bm] your [G] life? _ _
[D] _ [A] You're too young to [Bm] die tonight
[G] _ _
[D] She gets [A] in the car, sets high the [Bm] drive off, they head to [G] a car park [D] where he can skin up
She gets into [A] conversation, nods and [Bm] smiles, and she feels so [G] happy and [D] not even shy
A [A] girl pulls up, sees Ben and screams, [Bm] she puts [G] the car in gear and gets ready to leave
This [D] girl gets [A] out of the car and stands [Bm] in front, she screams, that's [G] my boyfriend, get out you little
[D] Josie [A] turns to Ben, who just strokes, she [Bm] don't believe her, she's never [G] been scared
and she's not [D] today either, she puts her hand [A] on the door and gets out to fight
[Bm] She's angry [G] now, this bitch has just ruined her night
[D] The two [A] girls clash, hair pulling, fists flying, [Bm] Josie [G] sees blood gushing, the other [D] steps back crying
[A] Josie grins and she thinks [Bm] she's won, then she looks [G] at Ben's face, who's completely stunned
[D] Then [A] there's a pain in the middle of her stomach, [Bm] the blood's on [G] her t-shirt, the other girl [D] starts running
[A] Josie's heart thuds, panic sets [Bm] in more, as she looks down at the pool of blood and [G] there's a knife on the floor
[D] _ [A] What you doing with [Bm] your [G] knife? _ _
[D] _ [A] You're too young to [Bm] ruin your [G] life _ _
[D] _ [A] What you doing [Bm] with your life?
[G] _ _
[D] _ [A] You're too young to die [Bm] tonight
_ [G] _
[D] She [A] hears Ty screeching, losing so much blood, [Bm] [G] Ben's car's gone, he's got a boot [D] full of drugs
She lies [A] there, eyes wetter with bait in the sky, [Bm] thoughts float out of [G] her mind as she questions [D] why
Her last [A] movement of the tear, she's [Bm] crying, she thinks about [G] her family as she lies there [D] dying
She's alone [A] on her own because of [Bm] the violence, can't let people [G] or friends or help or [D] sirens
She whispers I'm sorry, [A] there's no one on the way [Bm] as she returns to an [G] angel and her soul slips [D] away
[A] What you doing [Bm] with your knife?
[G] _
_ [D] _ [A] You're too young to [Bm] ruin your life
[G] _
_ [D] _ [A] What you doing [Bm] with your life?
[G] _
_ _ [D] You're [A] too young to [Bm] die tonight
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
