Down the street you can hear her scream "you're a disgrace"
Am
As she slams the door in his drunken face,
Em7 F F? G
And now he stands outside and all the neighbours start to gossip and drool.
G 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 F? G
And his tears fall and burn the garden green.
And so castles made of sand, fall in the sea, eventually.
G 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,

he would be a fearless warrior Indian Chief.
G F
Many moons passed and more the dream grew strong, until tomorrow
Am
He would sing his first war song,
Em7
And fight his first battle, but something went wrong,
F F? G
Suprise attack killed him in his sleep that night
And so castles made of sand, melts into the sea eventually.
G F
There was a young girl, whose heart was a frown,
Am
Because she was crippled for life, and couldn't speak a sound
Em7
And she wished and prayed she would stop
F F? G
living,so she decided to die.
G F
She drew her wheel chair 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 F? G
"Look, a golden winged ship is passing my way"
And it really didn't have to stop...it just kept on going.
And so castles made of sand slips into the sea,
Eventually
