You will need to reset your default keychain:


If you don’t remember your previous user password, you need to reset your default keychain. Resetting the default keychain deletes all the passwords saved in the keychain but lets you sync your login password and the password stored in the keychain.

To do this, change your password in Users & Groups settings, and the keychain password is automatically changed to match it.
