 I hold my breath
C/Bb
 I count the days
Am7                           Fm
 I know I'll see you when I'm older

C
 I try to fill
C/Bb
 The empty space
Am7                        Fm
 As that fateful day grows closer

[Pre-chorus]
    C/G
And when it comes around
       D
I wake up and kiss the ground
      F
I was lost and now I'm found, woah

[Chorus]

It's the first of october

It's the first of october
         C/Bb         Am7    Ab
How many songs can we make?

   C            C/Bb
We gotta get to ten
       Am7        Ab
By the end of the day

                    C      C/Bb
It's the first of october
                    F

 Autumn leaves
C/Bb
 Chicago breeze
Am7                        Fm
 I don't mind it's getting colder

C
 You by my side
C/Bb
 Is all I need
Am7                     Fm
 Wish it never would be over

[Pre-chorus]
       C/G
'Cause when it comes around
      D
We'll make a joyful sound
           F
Raise your voices, sing it loud, woah

Didn't think we'd get here

  It took a whole damn year

Am
 And now it's not august

It's not february, it's not july
C
 It's not even september
F
 I think you know what it is...
