[Intro]

G Cadd9 F
 
[Verse 1]

C/G  G
I   remember the sickness was forever
Cadd9  F               C/G
I     remember snuff videos
     G
Cold Septembers

The distances we covered
               Cadd9   F
The fist fights on the  beach
                    C/G
The Bizzies round us up
                    G
Do it all again next week

An embryonic love
              Cadd9    F
The first time that it scarred
                      C/G
Embarrass yourself for someone
             G
Crying like a child

And the boy who kicked Tom’s head in
     Cadd9    F
Still bugs me now
                   C/G
That’s the thing it lingers
                          G
And claws you when you’re down
 
G Cadd9  F C/G 
 
[Verse 2]

G
I was far too scared to hit him
                        Cadd9      F
But I would hit him in a heartbeat now
                     C/G
That’s the thing with anger
                    G
It begs to stick around
So it can fleece you of your beauty
                        Cadd9     F
And leave you spent with nowt to offer
                              C/G
It makes you hurt the ones who love you
                           G
You hurt them like they’re nothing
G
     Cadd9   F       C/G
oh oo wuh ah uh oh ah oh
                           G
You hurt them like they’re nothing
G
      Cadd9  F       C/G
oh oo wuh ah uh oh ah oh
You hurt them like they’re nothing
G
      Cadd9  F       C/G
oh oo wuh ah uh oh ah oh
 
C/G G
 
[verse 3]

[spoken]

G
See I spent my teens enraged
Cadd9         F
Spiralling in silence
                         C/G
And I armed myself with a grin
                               G
Cause I was always the f*@*in' joker

[Sung]

G
Buried in their humour
                  Cadd9     F
Amongst the white noise and boys' boys
                    C/G
Locker room talkin' lads' lads
                            G
Drenched in cheap drink and snide f*gs

A mirrored picture of my old man
           Cadd9   F
Oh God the kid’s a dab hand
                      C/G
Canny chanter, but he looks sad
                   G
God, the kid looks so sad
 
G Cadd9  F C/G
C/G                G
God, the kid looks so sad
 
G Cadd9  F C/G
 
[Verse 4]

C/G          G
She said the debt, the debt, the debt
So I thought about shifting gear
 Cadd9       F
And how she wept and wept and wept
C/G
Luck came and died round here
         G
I see my mother
The DWP see a number
                Cadd9   F
She cries on the floor   encumbered
                    C/G
I’m seventeen going under
                    G
I’m seventeen going under
 
[Outro]

G
     Cadd9     F     C/G
oh oo wuh   ah oh uh oh
                    G
I’m seventeen going under
G    G
uh-oh
     Cadd9     F     C/G
oh oo wuh   ah oh uh oh
                    G
I’m seventeen going under
G    G
uh-oh
     Cadd9     F     C/G
oh oo wuh   ah oh uh oh
                    G
I’m seventeen going under
G    G
uh-oh
     Cadd9     F     C/G
oh oo wuh   ah oh uh oh
      G
oh oo wuh ah oh uh oh
     Cadd9     F     C/G
oh oo wuh   ah oh uh oh
