October

          C
It's in smiles

A lover’s eyes
          Dm               C                F
It’s in joy when it needs no disguise
        F      C          Dm   C     F      C        G
It’s in fairytales and lullabies; stories that hold true

[Verse 2]

        C
It’s in hugs

Apple pies
        Dm               C              F
It’s in love that grows old but never dies
F            C              F     C     Gsus4         G
     These things make me glad to be alive

[Chorus]

      Am  F     C
We’ll never be able
      C            F
To treasure life enough
     F                C          Gsus4                G
When death comes my heart is overcome

      Am  F     C
We’ll never be able
       C           F
To treasure life enough
     F           C               Gsus4                G
When death comes I start looking up

[Verse 3]

        C
Little legs

They sit upon a shoulder
        Dm                      C                       F
It’s in blonde curls that won’t be there when she’s older
        F        C           Dm        C
It’s in raising up what was raised in us
         F      C     G
Spending Sunday in a pew

[Verse 4]

              C
And it’s in Fall

Winter Summer Spring
           Dm               C                 F
When we’re driving down the road and start to sing
        F                       C                Dm                     G
Falling leaves and clear blue skies and all the things we’ve made it through

[Chorus]

            Am F      C
Ohhhh I’ll never be able
        C             F
To treasure life enough
       F              C          Gsus4             G
When death comes my heart is overcome

                Am F      C
And though I’ll never be able
       C             F
To treasure life enough
       F         C                Gsus4            G
When death comes I start looking up

[Chorus]

      Am  F     C
We’ll never be able
       C            F
To treasure life enough
       F                C             Gsus4        G
When death comes it’s a window to my past

            Am  F      C
Though I’ll never be able
        C           F
To treasure life enough
        F                  C               Gsus4   G
When death comes I try to find a life that will    last
                        Am
Cause life is going so fast
                   F
Life is going so fast


[Ending]

                     Am
Dear heart stay sober
F                    G
     It is only October
          F                     G                C
Octobers end and tired hearts mend
