Sandyland


1st Version (Standard)

 C majorC
Don't build your house on the sandyland.
 C majorC                G7G7
Don't build it too near to the shore.
     C majorC         C7C7
Well it might look kind of nice,
      FF
but you'll have to build it twice.
      C majorC          G7G7     C majorC
Yes, you'll have to build your house once more.
      C majorC         C majorC  FF C majorC
You better build your upon a rock.
    C majorC          G7G7
Make a good foundation on a solid rock,
     C majorC   C7C7 FF
and the storms may come and go,
     C majorC      G7G7    C majorC
but the peace of God you will know.
