Intro: C Em G Bm 

C         D       G        Bm  
I own a sandcastle right by the sea 
G                           Bm  
My lover and I built it for to stay 
C         D       G           Bm 
we had the first castle there on the sand 
Am      D         C      G          Bm  
I ruled for years as the king of my land 
D                
One day an army of sand crabs approached 
G 
from the west 
D 
high in our sand castle turret  
G 
we looked out and laughed 
D               C  
for we saw more sand crabs 
G              Bm  
approach from the east 
D        G       D       
my lover and I looked down 
G      Bm  
at our feet 
D      C       G      C 
we asked should we use them 
G          Bm   
to run and hide 
G  
no we said let's watch them up 
          Bm  
here from up high  
G  
before we knew it the  
D 
sand and rocks   
G 
flew through the air 

D         G         D     G 
we didn't know what was going on 
D              G  
though we were there 
D    G  C  
now our sand castle  
G        Bm  
sunk in the sea 
G           C  
and all the sand crabs 
G               Bm  
returned while standing  
D           Am           G  
They didn't really think much 
       Bm  
of our land 
D        C         G       Bm  
my lover and I lie dead in the sand 

D C G B
