Castles Made Of Sand Uke tab by Jimi Hendrix

[Intro]
G C G C[Verse 1]
           F
   Down the street, you can hear her scream, "You're a disgrace"
       Am
As she slams the door in his drunken face
    Em
And now he stands outside
            F                  C                 G          
And all the neighbors start to gossip and drool

[Verse 2}
   F            
He cries, "Oh girl, you must be mad
     Am         
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?"
       Em
Against the door, he leans and starts a scene
         F             C           G         
And his tears fall and burn on the garden green

[Chorus]
        D                   C               F
And so castles made of sand fall in the sea
 G        F G
Eventually

[Verse 3]
  F
A little Indian brave who, before he was ten
       Am
Played war games in the woods with his Indian friends
       Em
And he built a dream that when he grew up
         F           C       G       
He would be a fierce warrior Indian Chief

[Verse 4]
     F       
Many moons passed, and more the dream grew strong
      Am
Until tomorrow, he would sing his first war song
    Em
And fight his first battle, but something went wrong
F               C                 G                 
Surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night

[Chorus]
        D                         C           F       
And so castles made of sand melts into the sea
G          F G
Eventually

[Verse 5]
       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
        Em 
And she wished and prayed she could stop living
F       C           G        
 So she decided to die

[Verse 6]
    F     
She drove her wheelchair to the edge of the shore
           Am
And to her legs she smiled, "You won't hurt me no more"
           Em       
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"

And it really didn't ever stop
It just kept on going

[Chorus]
       D                          C           F
And so castles made of sand slips into the sea
G         F G
Eventually
