              MIm
Something within him

But the moment that I first laid

Eyes on    him, all alone

        DO                   RE
Well, I see you doing what I try to do for me
         MIm
With the  words from a poet and a voice from a choir
      DO     RE                  MIm
And a melody, and nothing else mattered

              DO
Just like the white winged dove
        RE
Sings a song, sounds like she's singing

I said ooh, baby, ooh, said ooh

    MIm            RE/MI           DO/MI
The clouds never expect it when it rains
          RE/MI     DO
But the sea changes colours
        RE/DO        DO       RE/DO
But the sea does not change
   MIm      RE/MI          DO/MI   RE/MI
So with the slow, graceful flow of age
       DO                RE/DO DO       RE/DO
I went forth with an age old desire to please
       DO      RE/DO DO    DOadd9
On the edge of seventeen...

Edge of Seventeen è un brano scritto e interpretato da Stevie Nicks, contenuto nell'album Bella Donna pubblicato nel 1981. Si tratta del debutto discografico da solista per l'artista dell'Arizona, che dal 1975 militava in qualità di vocalist della rock band "Fleetwood Mac" per poi diventare ben nota come cantautrice. La canzone è il terzo singolo estratto dall'album, un incalzante pezzo pop-rock che racconta l'inizio della storia d'amore tra Tom Petty e la sua futura moglie Jane.
