Jonas Alaska - October

O^Cn a day just like this on ^Amthe ocean f^Four years ago ^Cnow The w^Cind was to strong the ^Amwaves were to big three young ^Fmen were thrown of the ^Cbow and ^Fmaj7I was at home they were fighting towards mother ^G7earth and ^Am7two of them died only ^Em7twenty years after their ^Fbirth in oc^Ctober oh

And the^C last of the three was left^Am hopelessly ^Fcrying for ^Chelp The wi^Cnd was screaming but the s^Amilence was stronger as he s^Ftood with his feet in the k^Celp ^Fmaj7The sun was still up but it was night time when I heard who ^G7died

I ^Am7only knew eric cause o^Em7ne time he gave me a ^Fride in oc^Ctober oh

^CNow I didn't know him well but I ^Amliked him he was ^Fone of those g^Cuys that e^Cveryone knew either l^Amiked him or not cause there were ^Fno sign of lies in his e^Cyes ^Fmaj7I was seventeen years old the last time he spoke to^G7 me ^Am7Now I'm twenty one and I'm ^Em7older than he'll ever ^Fbe in oc^Ctober oh

My ^Cfather is his mothers ^Amcousin so t^Fhat makes us ^Ckin I ^Cremember those family d^Aminners and the old peoples ^Ffunerals again and a^Cgain ^Fmaj7so strange looking round in the crowd when he wouldn't be ^G7found ^Am7oh the look on the face of his ^Em7brother when they lowered him ^Cdown in oc^Ctober oh

Oc^Ctober is the best turns ^Amroads into b^Feautiful t^Crails The ^Crime on the windows the l^Ameafs on your coat the ^Ffrost on the cars and the ^Crails ^Fmaj7Still out on the ocean those memories are bringing me ^G7down but ^Am7I've heard there's a symphony ^Em7playing you to sleep when you ^Fdrown Oc^Ctober again and again
