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
