Castles by Ryan Oakes

Chords with lyrics

Chorus:

Chord diagramC majorC      Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramA minorAm
Life in the fast lane, we play our cards
       Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramC majorC
Praying we'll find out just who we are
         Chord diagramG+G         Chord diagramA minorAm
We've built us a mansion from broken hearts
         Chord diagramG+G           Chord diagramC majorC
And filled all the emptiness with broken parts
       Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramA minorAm
King of this castle, I'll wear the crown
      Chord diagramG+G             Chord diagramC majorC
Hoping it lives on when I reach the ground
       Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramA minorAm
The demons in my head all dance around
        Chord diagramG+G
I'm facing this bottle, and praying they drown
Verse 1:

          Chord diagramC majorC
Bitch I've been the king of this castle

I've built it from the gravel
   Chord diagramG+G
Been slaving every day with no shackles
           Chord diagramA minorAm
I'd figure that I'd tackle the working on the battles
      Chord diagramG+G
Associated with this life, I'm everything but fragile
          Chord diagramC majorC
I heard they wanna come for me
                 Chord diagramG+G
Well, that's company, homie that's luxury

People wanna fuck with me,
  Chord diagramA minorAm                Chord diagramG+G
Luckily I got me a foundation and a location
              Chord diagramC majorC
Good for when it gets ugly, yeah, don't tell me to slow my role
   Chord diagramG+G
Homie give that shit a rest and put that shit on parole
      Chord diagramA minorAm
I'd give my heart and my soul until I'm reaching the goal
     Chord diagramG+G
Of having everything I wanted, so I'm building 'em all
  Chord diagramC majorC
I'm isolated alone, I'm working up till it's late
       Chord diagramG+G
See I've been battling with destiny and wrestling fate
      Chord diagramA minorAm
They always try to get the best of me, they're testing my pace
     Chord diagramG+G
But I can run how much I want, but I'ma never escape
     Chord diagramC majorC
And so I learned to embrace, all of the pain to be great
       Chord diagramG+G
And then you learn to erase all of the things in the way
             Chord diagramA minorAm
And then you learn to replace all of the things in the gape
              Chord diagramG+G
That left you empty wanting more and then it’s finally straight
            Chord diagramC majorC
And now I’m finding the strength, to try and shepherd the cattle
         Chord diagramG+G                              Chord diagramA minorAm
Who's stuck in a capsule living life in their shackles, tryna get through the day
                            Chord diagramG+G
They tryna get through these battles and never let them into their castles, so
Chorus:

Chord diagramC majorC      Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramA minorAm
Life in the fast lane, we play our cards
       Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramC majorC
Praying we'll find out just who we are
         Chord diagramG+G         Chord diagramA minorAm
We've built us a mansion from broken hearts
         Chord diagramG+G           Chord diagramC majorC
And filled all the emptiness with broken parts
       Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramA minorAm
King of this castle, I'll wear the crown
      Chord diagramG+G             Chord diagramC majorC
Hoping it lives on when I reach the ground
       Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramA minorAm
The demons in my head all dance around
        Chord diagramG+G
I'm facing this bottle, and praying they drown


Verse 2:

        Chord diagramC majorC
I need everyone wake up, ya'll building your own funeral
Chord diagramG+G
Sitting inside a cubicle wishing your life is beautiful
  Chord diagramA minorAm
It's inexcusable, if your happiness isn’t mutual
   Chord diagramG+G
With everything you're doing, your living is so unsuitable
  Chord diagramC majorC
And all of its removable, people think they’re trapped
     Chord diagramG+G
And that history repeats itself cycle of the past
     Chord diagramA minorAm
Yeah simplicity is sweet and safe right until you smash it
       Chord diagramG+G
And then the mysteries that could’ve been and everything will crash
     Chord diagramC majorC
And then everything will burn, and the only thing that's left¨
    Chord diagramG+G
Is the person in the mirror tryna swallow their regret
  Chord diagramA minorAm
Overthinking every night and realizing they’re depressed
     Chord diagramG+G
Tryna get through every day 'cause they’re a motherfucking wreck
      Chord diagramC majorC
And I don’t mean no disrespect, but this shit is your life
     Chord diagramG+G
You wanna waste it in an office knowing you don’t get it twice
    Chord diagramA minorAm
And you won’t second guess it from a second till it bites
      Chord diagramG+G
You in the ass upon your deathbed when you wish you did it right
Chord diagramC majorC
Normal can’t suffice, everybody's got a destiny
   Chord diagramG+G
They settle in for less than they deserve it's in the recipe
Chord diagramA minorAm
Passion equals profit perseverance is your weaponry
  Chord diagramG+G
To build you up a motherfucking legacy
       Chord diagramC majorC
Everyone pretend to be happy through out all of these battles
    Chord diagramG+G
They're stuck in they capsules and they're bound to their shackles
  Chord diagramA minorAm
See I’m here to tackle, flip the world the world on its axles
     Chord diagramG+G
And show 'em how to give up these castles, Oakes


Chorus:

Chord diagramC majorC      Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramA minorAm
Life in the fast lane, we play our cards
       Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramC majorC
Praying we'll find out just who we are
         Chord diagramG+G         Chord diagramA minorAm
We've built us a mansion from broken hearts
         Chord diagramG+G           Chord diagramC majorC
And filled all the emptiness with broken parts
       Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramA minorAm
King of this castle, I'll wear the crown
      Chord diagramG+G             Chord diagramC majorC
Hoping it lives on when I reach the ground
       Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramA minorAm
The demons in my head all dance around
        Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramC majorC
