October Acordes

	  

 

 C                         Am         F 
On a day just like this on the ocean four years  
    C 
ago now 
     C                     Am        
The wind was to strong the waves were to big  
            F                      C 
three young men were thrown of the bow 
    Fmaj7 
and I was at home they were fighting towards  
       G7  
mother earth 
    Am7                   Em7  
and two of them died only twenty years after  
      F 
their birth 
     C 
in october oh 

       C                          Am 
And the last of the three was left hopelessly  
F          C   
crying for help 
      C                         Am  
The wind was screaming but the silence was 
                F                          C 
stronger as he stood with his feet in the kelp 
Fmaj7                                
The sun was still up but it was night time when  
            G7 
I heard who died 
          
  Am7                   Em7                  
I only knew eric cause one time he gave me a  
F 
ride 
     C 
in october oh 

C                                Am 
Now I didn't know him well but I liked him he  
    F             C 
was one of those guys 
      C                    Am    
that everyone knew either liked him or not  
                 F                       C 
cause there were no sign of lies in his eyes 
Fmaj7 
I was seventeen years old the last time he  
        G7  
spoke to me 
Am7                        Em7 
Now I'm twenty one and I'm older than he'll  
     F 
ever be 
     C 
in october oh 

   C                     Am         F 
My father is his mothers cousin so that makes 
   C  
us kin 
  C                      Am 
I remember those family dinners and the old  
        F                   C  
peoples funerals again and again 
Fmaj7 
so strange looking round in the crowd when he 
            G7  
wouldn't be found 
Am7                            Em7   
oh the look on the face of his brother when  
                 C  
they lowered him down 
     C 
in october oh 

  C                       Am          F 
October is the best turns roads into beautiful  
 C 
trails 
    C                        Am 
The rime on the windows the leafs on your coat 
    F                         C   
the frost on the cars and the rails 
Fmaj7 
Still out on the ocean those memories are  
            G7 
bringing me down 
    Am7                           Em7 
but I've heard there's a symphony playing you 
                  F  
to sleep when you drown 
  C 
October again and again
