Am  F/A  C  G

Verse 1:
             Am          F/A  C           G
There must've been a moment, a second or a time
      Am             F/A  C                   G
When I didn't look up or I missed some kind of sign
          Am              F/A          C              G
Turned the wrong direction when she was just an inch away
      Am                F/A    C                G
Like a missed connection and my future slipped away

Pre-Chorus:
Bb                        F
There've been times when I feel like I'm
Bb                  Am7
Conspired against by faith
Bb                       C       D  Dsus4  D
It's almost bad enough to make me hate

Chorus:
Am                  F              C      G
I'm sick of building castles in the sand
Am              F               G                 D
Just waiting for another face to break my promised land
F                        G               C      C/B       Am      Am/G
I've been looking for the real thing in a lonely one night stand
D/F#                          F   G   Am  F/A  C  G
Like building castles in the sand

Verse 2:
         Am         F/A  C         G
'Cause it terrifies me, ending up alone
      Am             F/A   C                G
And it walks beside me, the ghost of chances gone

Pre-Chorus:
Bb                 F             Bb                Am7
Did I have it did I let it go, or close the door to fast
Bb                          C     D  Dsus4  D
Is there an answer locked up in my past, in my past

Chorus:
Am                  F              C      G
I'm sick of building castles in the sand
Am                  F               G                D
Seems like everybody else I know can hold it in their hands
F                G            C         C/B       Am     Am/G
So will it ever happen or am I doomed to walk this land
D/F#                          F   G   Am
Just building castle's in the sand

Bridge:
         D
I've been crying, I've been living alone so long
         D
I've been over and over the reasons
     F                           G
But I can't find the thing that's wrong
     D                                 Am   C/B
In my mind, all the evidence seems to say
C                                               E
I wouldn't even know it if she walked right in today

Chorus:
Am                  F              C      G
I'm sick of building castles in the sand
Am                  F               G                D
Seems like everybody else I know can hold it in their hands
F                G            C         C/B       Am     Am/G
So will it ever happen or am I doomed to walk this land
D/F#             G  E
Just building castle's in the sand
