Verse:
D#A#
I was a runaway and you were a queen
CmG#
Our tongues tied in the mezzanine
CmA#
We were free
G#A#
No strings on you, no strings on me
D#A#
I was a cannonball and you were the sea
CmG#
When I crashed into your blue dream
CmA#
We were free
G#A#CmA#G#
Time takes no prisoners, youʼll see
Pre-chorus:
D#A#
When youʼre seventeen
CmG#
The thought of a spark could start a fire
D#A#
Tube top and faded jeans
FmG#
How we forget how we desire
Chorus:
D#A#
We were seventeen, seventeen
CmG#
We had city dreams, city dreams
D#A#
We were seventeen, seventeen
CmG#
We had city dreams, city dreams

Free
