Kate Voegele - Sandcastles

kate voegele – sandcastles ( asn . debbie )

standard tuning + no capo

chords used : C : x32010
G : 320033 ( G * : 320010 )
Am : x02210 ( Em : 022000 )
F : x33210

* note * : i don’t know if this is completely accurate , but to me
it sounds good . the G * is a variation of the G – chord ,
to me it sounds like the G * – chord is used in the verses ,
and the full G – chord in the chorus . i saw a video of her
playing without a capo in the studio and a video in wich
she had a capo on the 5th fret . if you put the capo on the
5th fret , just press the transpose button and transpose
it 5 half steps down . then you’ll play G – D etc .

[ intro ]

C – G * – C – G *

[ verse 1 ]

C G *
i got this ticket in my hand
C G *
and i got a long , long day ahead
Am Em
and i got a hell of a lot of reasons to be sad
C G *
but i’ve got a hundred more that keep me coming back

[ verse 2 ]

C G *
i got these worn out red boots on
C G *
and i got a brand new favourite song
Am Em
and i can name some people who’d say that i got it all wrong
C G *
but i know plenty more who’ve been there all along

~ [ chorus ] ~

C
i’d rather make sandcastles
Am
instead of these wide – world decisions
F G
i knew , i knew it all was catching up to me , yeah
C
and i don’t have a plan at all
Am
but i got this six – string religion
F G
and i do , i do believe a song can heal me
C G *
it’s enough for me , yeah

[ verse 3 ]

C G *
i had this picture in my head
C G *
of where i oughta be and when
Am Em
but it’s just like the good advice that john gave when he said ,
C G *
“life , it happens while we’re busy making plans”

~ [ chorus ] ~

[ verse 4 ]

C G *
where i’m laughing is where i’m home
C G *
but you know how fast it makes the time go
Am Em
and there was nothing like the first time that i saw open road
C G *
and i wasn’t terrified to ride it on my own

[ bridge ]

C G *
i got my heart in the right place
C G *
but that place is millions of miles away
Am Em
and i suppose i never will know the perfect words to say
C G *
but i’ll keep searching till they find me one fine day

~ [ chorus ] ~

[ outro ]

C – G *
