---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -= ROBIN =-= SPARKLES =- -=- -= SANDCASTLES =-= IN =-= THE =-= SAND =- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hey! Here are the promised chords for Sandcastles in the Sand. I did them by ear, but I'm pretty sure they're right. Recommended strumming pattern (or how I play it :)) [:v-^-v-^-v-^v-v^-:] Standard tuning. You can play the song with a capo on the 2nd fret, the chords (in parentheses) are somewhat easier. ~Chords by Slampisko e-mail: [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- VERSE1 D F#m (C Em) Met you at the mall Bm A G (Am G F) Didn’t know how far I would fall D F#m My friends said I was a fool (you’re a fool) (shut up) Bm A G ‘Cause you were older and got kicked out of school (you’re so rad) Bm A E (Am G D) Together we were gonna travel the globe A (G) From Alberta to Ontario CHORUS1 D A (C G) But now I’m building sandcastles in the sand (sandcastles in the sand) Bm A G (Am G F) Thought I could fly when you held my hand (thought I could fly) E G (D F) But now eternity turns to black and white A D (G C) It was the greatest week and a half of my life VERSE2 We used to go to the beach Back when happiness was in our reach (so close) On our favorite bench We’d sit and talk and you taught me to French You’re good at pullups and have radical hair I hate my dad he’s so unfair (you don’t understand our love) CHORUS2 But now I’m building sandcastles in the sand (sandcastles in the sand) Thought I could fly when I held your hand (I was wrong) Eternity turns to black and white It was the greatest week and a half of my life BRIDGE A# C (G# A#) It’s crazy no one gets me Dm C A# (Cm A# G#) Castles wash away Dm (Cm) Come back please C (A#) I’ve changed my mind Dm C G A (Cm A# F G) Let’s go all the way (I love you, let’s do it) I miss you CHORUS3 [[repeat only the first five chorus chords until the end]] Sandcastles in the sand (oh, I miss your hair) Thought I could fly when I held your hand (I thought you were the one) Sandcastles wash away (I love you, let’s do it) And all that’s left is some sand the next day Sandcastles may be cute (I’m on the pill now) But now all they do is remind me of you (Let’s go all the way) (You said it’d be okay) (I’m sorry) Sandcastles wash away
