October Sky Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Well, she [Am]slid down the [E]hall
in [G]socks and yelled
"Come out[Am]side[E][G][D]
No no [Am]no, nothing's [E]wrong
I just [G]happen to have a
sur[Am]prise"[E][G][D]
So we [Am]fell through the [E]door
like the [G]autumn [D]leaves
And I [Am]wrestled my [E]brother down [G]to his [D]knees
Just to [Am]watch as her [F]rocket shot
[C]into the [G]October [A]sky[E][G][D]

[Chorus 1]
There's a [C]picture of [F]us
In a [C]layer of [F]dust
On the [C]mantle
Right [F]by my ciga[Am]rettes that I [G]smoke
Since you [F]left
'Cause you [Em]said you had to [Dm]fly
In your October [Am]sky
La-da-[F]da, [C]da-di-da, [G]da
[F][Am][Em][D][D]

[Verse 2]
Now I [Am]work in the [E]city and I [G]blend
into the [Am]crowd[E][G][D]
And the [Am]people grieve [E]with me
since the [G]towers came down,
[Am]down[E][G][D]
You could [Am]cut the poll[E]ution
with a [G]butter [D]knife
You could [Am]wake up at [E]two
and then [G]party all [D]night
But I'm [Am]missing my [F]mama
so I'll [C]stand on the [G]street and get
[A]high[E][G][D]

[Chorus 2]
There's a [C]picture of [F]us
Hidden in a [C]layer of [F]dust
On the [C]mantle
Right [F]by my ciga[Am]rettes that I [G]smoke
Since you [F]left
'Cause you [Em]said you had to [Dm]fly
In your October [Am]sky
La-da-[F]da, [C]da-di-da, [G]da
La-da-[F]da-da-da, [Am]da-da-da
[Em]Da-da-da, [D]da[D]

[Bridge 1]
And as I [F]go back home to [G]Memphis
I re[F]member days that [G]I
I was [F]outside shooting [G]rockets
Almost as [Am]high[G][F][Em][Dm][Dm]

[Outro 1]
In your Octob[Am]er[F][C]
In your [G]Octob[Am]er[F][C]
In your [G]Octob[Am]er[F][C]
In your [G]Octob[Am]er[F][C]
In your [G]October [Am]sky
La-da-[F]da, [C]da-di-da, [G]da
La-da-[F]da-da-da, [Am]da-da-da
[Em]Da-da-da, [D]da
