October

A
                    Em          Am
Trick of the light, turn of the tide
             C           Em       Am
A rift in a valley, full moon in July
            C              D          C
Red summer sun mourning, a cold April sky
     Am      C          D            Am   C G Am Am C D
That lonely October, so cruel    to deny

A                      Em         Am
A wish for a fountain lost in the winds
              C        Em       Am
A kick from a new life about to begin
                C           D            C
A south facing island that floods in the spring
     Am       C           D                Am  C G
Will call to October new life,   it will bring
Em        Am  C G Em        Am   C G Em      Am    C D
It will bring,    it will bring,     it will bring

                     Em           Am
A drop in the ocean, short of the line
          C              Em        Am
Cursing a feeling caught up by the night
               C       D          C
Repairing the ruin, reducing the sting
     Am      C            D
That falling October will bring
Am            C        G             Am
Hope that is dreaming, love that is torn

              C           Em         Am
Dancing like dust in the eye of the storm
               C             Em           Am
Truth will be lost when the mocking bird dies
            C             D              Em    Am
October returns with its cold   winter skies

                      Em           Am
Awe can't be touched, faith can be blind
             C            Em            Am
Fooled by a past that the world left behind
          C               D           C
Hidden in rocks that are lost to the shore
    Am       C           D
Of silent October you choose to ignore
