Sandcastle

A                                 
I saw a house on a shore that was 
         E
standing tall
                              F#m
And across the water I heard a call
                                D
The sound of everything she loved 
just fell to pieces in the tide
A                           
Seasons passed and they shook 
       E
those walls
                             F#m
Would her heartlast through it all
                         Dm
I waded to my chest, and drowned a 
little just to watch the fire
N.C.
So can someone tell me


[Chorus]
A                                 
Why she looks in the mirror 
            E
thinking it's her fault

When she was the foundation
F#m               D
Ohh - Ohhh - Ohh
A                                 
I say the words but I know she 
                 E
can’t hear me talk

So I just get frustrated
F#m
Ohh - Ohhh
              Dm         N.C.
Cause I can't watch the sandcastle 
fall to the ground


[Verse 2]
A                            
I saw a light burning out from 
             E
across the waves

Try to fix it but I know that can't 
  F#m
I change
                               Dm
Life to the way it was before
N.C.
Cause I know that she
A
Covers up the scars she’s scared to 
show
E
And watching doesn't help me let it 
go
F#m                               
Cause I've been here before but I 
                  Dm
still don't know


[Chorus]
A                                 
Why she looks in the mirror 
            E
thinking it's her fault

When she was the foundation
F#m
Ohh - Ohhh - Ohh   D
A                                 
I say the words but I know she 
           E
can't hear me talk

So I just get frustrated
F#m
Ohh - Ohhh
              D
Cause I can't watch the sandcastle 
fall to the ground


[Bridge]
A    E    F#m    D

A
Cause I want to know
   E
If it all crashed down tonight
          F#m
Would you run towards the riptide
   D
To forget what you can't fight

A
Cause I want to know
       E
If you couldn’t stop the tide
          F#m
Would you call into the distance
          D
Would you hope that I’m alive


[Chorus]
A                                 
Why she looks in the mirror 
            E
thinking it's her fault

When she was the foundation
F#m                D
Ohh - Ohhh - Ohh
A                                 
I say the words but I know she 
           E
can’t hear me talk

So I just get frustrated
F#m
Ohh - Ohhh
              D         N.C.
Cause I can't watch the sandcastle 
fall to the ground
