Capo 1st Fret / Key of "D#" 
 
Intro:  D (let ring) G (let ring) 

       D
Well, it feels like slow-motion 
  G
I hear the gun explodin' 
        D/F#                G    A
I see the flash, it brings me to my knees 
    G           D         G
And I feel the warmth flowin' out of me 
 
-CHORUS 
 
       A                 G
But in my mind, I'm climbin' up the stairs 
             A
And walkin' down the hall 
               G
And Heather's standin' there 
         A
October ninety-nine 
            D       G   Gsus4    G
I see us in New England in the fall 
               Bm           A     Asus2   A
Our love will last forever like that 8 by 10 
       D       G    A Asus2 A
Hangin' on Heather's wall 
       D       G    A Asus2 A G
Hangin' on Heather's wall 
 
 
        D
I see the money on the floor 
     G
And his gun there by the door 
    D/F#                       G  A
He was tryin' to rob the bank when I walked in 
      G           D               G
Oh, but this is not the way it's supposed to end 
 
-Repeat Chorus 
 
-Solo->  D  G  A Asus2 A     D  G  A Asus2 A 

-Bridge 
 
  Bm               A
Oh, somewhere someone says we've lost him now 
  Bm              A n.c.
But I look up and I see Heather's smile 
 
-CHORUS #2 
 
         A                      G
So how can I be dyin', when I'm climbin' up the stairs 
             A
And walkin' down the hall 
                G
And I see a bright light there 
         A
October ninety-nine 
                D        G  Gsus4   G
And that picture of New England in the fall 
               Bm           A    Asus2  A
Our love will last forever like that 8 by 10 
       D            G             A Asus2    A
Hangin' on Heather's wall (our love will last forever) 
       D            G             A Asus2    A
Hangin' on Heather's wall (our love will last forever) 
       D        G
Hangin' on Heather's wall
