Sand

[Verso 1]
 
D        Dsus2 D Dsus4 
Slipping in the sand 
Dsus2 D5   Dsus4 D 
Hold tight my hand 
D        Dsus2 D Dsus4 
Not what we had planned (but) 
Dsus2          D5 Dsus4 D 
It's made me a better man 
 


[Verso 2]
 
D         G 
Angels on high 
A             D 
Angels by our side 
D                 G 
Oh watch the time fly 
A              D 
Be gone in the tide 
 


[Verso 3]
 
D           G 
Future's so bright 
A       D 
We kiss goodnight 
D             G 
Ghosts of the past (still) 
A               D 
Ain't fading so fast 
 


[Refrão]
 
G              D 
Ooh, but we're here to see 
A             D 
How grows our family and 
G               D 
Ooh, it's still you and me 
A     Asus    A 
After all you know 
 


[Verso 4]
 
D                    G 
She has texts on her phone 
A                             D 
Soon the boys won't leave her alone 
D                        G 
Oh my, the younger one's grown (and) 
A                D 
We'll be left on our own 
 


[Verso 5]
 
D                   G 
With a flood of the memories 
A                    D 
From all the time we couldn't see 
D                       G 
How we could make it to here 
     A       D 
Ooh, you and me 
 


[Refrão]
 
   G                  D 
So make a dent in the sand 
A                  D 
Rushing waves once again 
G                    D 
Capture them in your memory 
A          Asus     A 
Out in the swirling sea 
 


[Verso 6]
 
D            G 
We are aging on 
A            D 
Hand in hand in this song 
D                  G 
The rhythm's thundering on (and will) 
A                D 
Long after we're gone 
 


[Verso 7]
 
D                         G 
'Cause the drum beat's in their hearts 
A                     D 
And the chords in the footsteps that start 
D                          G 
On these sands given by the past 
A                         D 
By our parents who didn't last 
 


[Refrão]
 
       G                  D 
We can almost see mom and dad 
        A               D 
Hope we didn't leave it bad 
G                     D 
All the gifts of this ocean borne 
   A        Asus    A 
Of all your endless tears 
 

Outro 
D    Dsus2 D Dsus4 
Ooh, so it goes 
Dsus2           D5 Dsus4 D 
It's yours now, so you know 
D             Dsus2 D  Dsus4 
No matter how currents flow 
D 
Hold on 
Dsus2     D 
Don't let go 

D
