[Verse 1]
G
Drive yourself right up the wall
G
No one hears and no one calls
       C
It's a boring state
       Cm              G
It's a useless wait, I know
G
Brag about things you don't understand
G
Girl and a woman, a boy and a man
             C
Everything's sexually vague
           Cm
Now you're wondering to yourself
                G
If you might be gay

[Chorus 1]
D
Your age is the hardest age
G
Everything drags and drags
D                             Am
One day, baby, maybe help you through
G  D    C       G  D    G
G  D    C       G  D    G

[Verse 2]
G
Drive your ma to the bank
G
Tell your pa you got a date
           C
But you're lying       
           Cm            G
Now you're lying on your back
G
Try to figure out, they wonder what next you will
G
You don't understand anything sexual
   C                 Cm
I don't understand
                          G
Tell my friends I'm doing fine

[Chorus 2]
D
Your age is the hardest age
G
Everything drags and drags
D                                            Am
You're looking funny, you ain't laughing are you?
G  D    C       G  D    G
Sixteen blue     Sixteen blue
G  D    C       G  D    G
Sixteen blue
