This is Sandcastles written and performed by me - Jarrod Yeomans
This is my favorite song to play, and did well at the open mic on monday so here it is!
I imagine a band coming in at the chorus to complete the sound
I hope you like my song!

Lyrics:
V1:
Why is it when your together
you think its going strong
its only when theyre gone forever
can you see where it went wrong

in this dark and stormy weather
we find this is where we belong
we've got no hope whatsoever
its just a ride were strung along

Ch:
we built our castles in the sand
and tried to fight against the tide
barricade ourselves in
and fill our days with the dark of night
but we find we built on uneven ground
walls start crumbling all around
although we'll never understand
we watch our castle sink
watch our castle sink
watch our castle sink
into the sand

V2:
Love is such a treacherous game
we dodge the bullets in our hearts
a battlefield filled with flames
were just gonna get torn apart
yet we still play these games
with little knowledge to impart
till we find were the ones to blame
and it leads us right back to the start

Ch2:
we built our castles in the sand
and tried to fight against the tide
barricade ourselves in
and fill our days with the dark of night
but we find we built on uneven ground
walls start crumbling all around
although we'll never understand
we watch our castle sink

but we find we built on uneven ground
walls start crumbling all around
although we'll never understand
we watch our castle sink
into the sand

  • Uooou!!! I great voice and guitar too.

    I love that song!

    I also play the guitar (since three years ago) Can you send me the chords please?

    How many time have you been practising it? It sounds great ^^ Keep it up

  • of course you can

    ill send them to you as soon as i can

  • Mate, for someone that has had only about 1 years experience with singing and guitar you are pretty good!! I reckon you should try out for Australian Idol...I'd definitely vote for you!!!!!!! Keep up the excellent work!!!!!

  • thank you so much!

    im thinking about next year for idol

  • man I can totally hear the producing you're talking about. Maybe get yourself an 8track recorder and a synthesizer keyboard? they can be so much fun. either way though this song really has some pull, it MOVES during the chorus!

  • thanks mate!

    ill definitely have to look into a synth

see all
