         F
Down the street you can hear her scream "you're a disgrace"

       Am
As she slams the door in his drunken face

    Em7
And now he stands outside

            F                  C          G
And all the neighbors start to gossip and drool

   F
He cries "Oh, girl you must be mad

     Am
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?"

 Em7
Against the door he leans and starts a scene

        F              C        G
And his tears fall and burn the garden green

       G               D   
And so castles made of sand 

            F         C
Fall in the sea, eventually

         F
A little Indian brave who before he was ten

       Am
Played war games in the woods with his Indian friends

       Em7
And he built a dream that when he grew up

         F             C       G
He would be a fearless warrior Indian Chief

     F
Many moons past and more the dream grew stronger

      Am                                         
Until tomorrow he would sing his first war song 

    Em7
And fight his first battle, but something went wrong

   F           C           G
Surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night

       G               D   
And so castles made of sand 

               F         C
Melts into the sea, eventually

      F
There was a young girl whose heart was a frown

             Am
Cause she was crippled for life and she couldn't speak a sound

       Em7                               F      C
And she wished and prayed she could stop livin'

       G
So she decided to die

             F
She drew her wheelchair to the edge of the shore

    Am
And to her legs she smiled "You won't hurt me no more"

    Em7
But then a sight she'd never seen made her jump and say

F          C             G
  "Look, a golden winged ship is passing my way"

       G               D   
And so castles made of sand 

               F         C
Slips into the sea, eventually
