I’m still thinkin’ bout
a love that I once knew
and sit and wondering
if it could happen to you
and if you were here
I’d just wonder what I’d do
I think that I would pick a rose that I once grew

And give it to you
and give it to you
and give it to you
and give it to you

I’d ask my guardian angel
if it would be ok
[Am/C]to rent a room in heaven
only for the day
and then I’d take you in
and when the day was done
I’d take a piece of cloud
and dip it in the sun

and give it to you
and give it to you
and give it to you
and give it to you

If you see my friend the robin
come down from the sky
do you think you could ask him
to teach you how to fly
and when he does come to me
and we will go afar
I’ll take a little rainbow
and rap it round a star

and give it to you
and give it to you
and give it to you
and give it to you

and give it to you
and give it to you
and give it to you
and give it to you

(keep repeating about 15 or so times)

Outro: Cmaj7 E G Cmaj7 Em

throws a thousand waves into

my ear
let’s form a parade
would you be afraid
with bands and floats and queens and lots of clowns
the plagues will lead us down
the main street
dressed in banners
balloons candy sweet
whistles sirens and horns
the boy scouts in green
drum and bugle teams
the legion and the passing
present important teams
all leave the big parade
down the street
crowd attending
lonely lonely eyes
smile through rubber disguise
the cannons and guns
all add to the fun
the mayor and local
young tv stars
wave from the shiny cars
at the end
sad notation
men in white with rakes
clean up the big parade
wind swept streets
show to me
just the thousand programs left to lay
that’s what I’m trying to say

Intro: C Em G Bm

I own a sandcastle right by the sea
My lover and I built it for to stay
we had the first castle there on the sand
I ruled for years as the king of my land
One day an army of sand crabs approached
from the west
high in our sand castle turret
we looked out and laughed
for we saw more sand crabs
approach from the east
my lover and I looked down
at our feet
we asked should we use them
to run and hide
no we said let’s watch them up
here from up high
before we knew it the
sand and rocks
flew through the air

we didn’t know what was going on
though we were there
now our sand castle
sunk in the sea
and all the sand crabs
returned while standing
They didn’t really think much
of our land
my lover and I lie dead in the sand
