Capo 1st Fret / Key of "D#" 
 
Intro:  D (let ring) G (let ring) 
 
          D 
Well, it feels like slow-motion 
   G 
I hear the gun explodin' 
           D/F#                       G    A 
I see the flash, it brings me to my knees 
       G               D             G 
And I feel the warmth flowin' out of me 
 
-CHORUS 
 

           A                          G 
But in my mind, I'm climbin' up the stairs 
                      A 
And walkin' down the hall 
                         G 
And Heather's standin' there 
                A 
October ninety-nine

I see us in New England in the fall 
                      Bm             A      A9  A 
Our love will last forever like that 8 by 10 
            D            G    A  A9  A 
Hangin' on Heather's wall 
            D            G    A  A9  A  G 
Hangin' on Heather's wall 
 
 
           D 
I see the money on the floor 
         G 
And his gun there by the door 
        D/F#                                 G   A 
He was tryin' to rob the bank when I walked in 
          G              D                    G 
Oh, but this is not the way it's supposed to end 
 
-Repeat Chorus

-Bridge 
 

     Bm                           A 
Oh, somewhere someone says we've lost him now 
    Bm                   A              n c  
But I look up and I see Heather's smile 
 
-CHORUS #2 
 

                 A                                G 
So how can I be dyin', when I'm climbin' up the stairs 
                      A 
And walkin' down the hall 
                          G 
And I see a bright light there 
                A 
October ninety-nine 
                         D              G  G4 G 
And that picture of New England in the fall 
                      Bm             A     A9 A 
Our love will last forever like that 8 by 10 
            D                   G                 A  A9 A 
Hangin' on Heather's wall (our love will last forever) 
            D                   G                 A  A9 A
