Sandcastle Kingdoms

E C D
E B E

[Verse 1]
E                   C
What can I make and what can I sell?
  D                          Em   
A timeshare in heaven that's just 
       B
out of hell
E                 C
Am I a fraud or a genuine scam?
D                 Em            B
Am I a monster or worse, just a man?

Em                       C
In the end we're all the same
       D             Em       B
To the grave we only take our names
           Em            C
There's an ocean made of dreams
        D                   Em     
But the current strands you out at 
B
sea

[Chorus]
   Em        B
I wake up to find
    D          A
The passing of time
     C         B
Made my mirror show
    F#          B
Someone I don't know
     Em         B
Now with my own hands
       D           A
Build castles from sand
    C            B
But all kingdoms drown
Continues after the ad
   F#               B
As tides bring them down

[Verse 2]
   Em               C
My army has fallen, ambitions have 
burned
    D                       Em    
The subjects stay loyal but don't 
           B
wait their turn
    Em                        C
Now blindly they follow their king 
to the fray
    D                    Em       
But he has no action and they have
    B
 no say

       Em                 C
In the end we're bound to change
                   D           
We're made for more than all of 
       Em          B
these numbers and names
         Em             C
We could all go down in flames
              D                
Or put it out, relinquish these 
 Em            B
words from my mouth

[Chorus]
  Em         B
I wake up to find
    D          A
The passing of time
     C         B
Made my mirror show
    F#          B
Someone I don't know
    Em          B
Now with my own hands
      D            A
Build castles from sand
    C             B
But all kingdoms drown
   F#               B
As tides bring them down

    Em          B
The sirens they sing
  D              A
Laments just for me
  C          B
I fall to my knees
    F#         B
And beg for release

     Em         B
When my kingdom comes
   D       A
My will be undone
   C          B
My world then decides
      F#         B
Where to hang my hide

       Em                 C
In the end we're bound to change
         D        Em  B
Bound to change
         Em             C       D 
We could all go down in flames
 Em  B


Em        B               D     A
Maybe one day you'll find humanity
       C             B             
Until then don't you dare say that 
F#         B       Em
we are the same
