E   Bm   F#m



A                             E  
Oh, September girl, I am so 
                                Bm 
scared today. Already 28 and still 
                   E
haven’t saved the world.

A                                 
Woke up this morning to nothing I 
       E                           
recognized. Everything changed and 
     Bm               E
I never saw it coming.

A                                 
Now there are 5 billion 
    E                              
disappointed souls scraping around 
 Bm            E
in my disappointed mind.

A                  E             
And for the first time in my life
Bm    F#m    A    E     Bm    
 I am afraid of changing 
because  everything’s changing 
      E
without me.


A  E  Bm  E                 A  
oooo......   September girl.   
    E  Bm   E               A    
Oooo......   September girl.
E   Bm   E

A                           E    
Oh September girl I am so scared 
for you. You finally decided to live
      Bm       E
 on without me.

A                                 
Now I am forced to just swallow 
       E                        
this heart for you to become the 
        Bm             E
girl you already are.

A                        
Now there are five billion 
                     E             
disappointed souls that’ll just 
                   Bm            
have to wait… ‘cause I only dream 
       E
for you.

A                   E          
And for the first time in my 
Bm    F#m    A      E           
life I am afraid of changing 
 Bm                          
because everything's changing 
        E
without me



A  E  Bm  E                 A  
oooo... September girl.   
    E  Bm   E                     
Ooooo.... September girl.
 A    E   Bm   E

A                              
Maybe it's time for me to do the 
                     E
thing that I meant to do

            Bm                     
'Cause you're getting older and I'm
 getting older and even us good 
             E
people die.

           A                    
The gifted never stop seeing the 
                           E
world for the first time.

            Bm                     
The good ones grow older, the poor 
ones grow older, the great ones are 
                   E    A
never forgotten.
