This is my first chord writing. Pretty close to the recording.
The D-X mark is meaning that the X stops the strings (hitting the strings once) for a
beat before going back into the G. It's kind of a quick 3 strum on the G & D. (G G G D D D X)
NO CAPO!
G D - X x3
(da da da da da etc)
G D Em
Built a perfect house in a perfect town
G D Em
Dreamt a perfect dream and it all fell down
C D
We held on tight like hungry lovers
Em D
Watched the day break from beneath the covers
G D Em
Had to know for sure what it's all about
C D G
Oh, this should be easy
C D G
Oh, just tell me we're happy
D G
Just building castles in the sand
G D - X x3
(da da na na, da da na na)
I saw the naked light and it burned my eyes
Couldn't look away, no matter how I tried
I watched you explode when you think it's over
Burst in colour like a super nova
Had to track you down, had to find you out
Oh, this should be easy
Oh, just tell me we're happy
Just building castles in the sand
G D - X x3
Just building castles in the sand
G Em C
The tides roll in and waves get closer
C G D
And knock us over and we get stronger every time
G
We build our castles in the sand
G D Em
Built a perfect house in a perfect town
G D Em
Dreamt a perfect dream and it all fell down
C D G D
Oh, just tell me we're happy
Just building castles in the sand
G D - X x3 (Till Fade out)
Just building castles in the sand
Just building castles in the sand
Just building castles in the sand
