Verse 1
D 
Well it's time we took the air,
I'll walk you to the door
G 
D 
G 
They put it in my head,
D 
that you and me are no more
We've got nothing left here,
and there's nothing to decide
A 
D 
A 
They've already had way too much
D 
of my time
I'm not gonna fan the flames

I'll bore you to tears
about the good old days

No

U .P .I .A .s, just pack your bags
Cause I'm taking you to

D 
Sands
A 
That's the title of the song
D 
We get away from this town
A 
Bm 
Where the pavement's stained is the
B 
bank street of your heart
Bm 
That's clogging up your vein
F#m 
s     when the rain falls down
A 
Or the rain falls hard,
F#m 
A 
a long tale might talk from a well so dark
D 
F#m 
The lonely hearts fail and lonely
Bm 
lovers meet by slogans on walls
F#m 
And the sewer crawls into  the streets
With the love, with the joy, and the ecstasy
A 
G 
D 
Ah, the profoundness
Em 
A 
of your dreams
D 
Oh that time we took the
air outside the county lines
G 
We took off our clothes,
we swam back in time
D 
We floated all the way back to 83
F#m 
A 
To    forget all the pain,
F#m 
D 
did   you ever feel so carefree?
F#m 
Oh, bare are the shoulder
D 
G 
s that'll carry me
Bm 
Oh, when I'm older, across the quicksand,
D 
Bm 
the darker land
A 
Put on your gloves,
F#m 
we're heading back to
Bm 
Can berra
D 
Sands
A 
D 
But I shivered, I panicked
F#m 
for the present day
Bm 
F#m 
The silver that glistened every holiday
The sand mirrored the water
and I watered
the sand
A 
D 
The sea walls in the distance
are camber sands
Where lonely hearts fail,
Bm 
and lonely lovers meet
By slogans on walls,
F#m 
and the sewer crawls into  the sea
A 
With a love, with a joy, and the ecstasy
G 
D 
Oh, the profoundness of your
F#m 
Em 
A 
dreams
D 
G

A 
Bm 
Em 
Bm 
Had some holiday that you turned out to be
A 
You dredged up the mud along
Monkey
Beach
E 
You disappeared in the pastures
for miles and miles
B 
Bm 
Till the tide caught up with you o 'er the
E 
Mersey
Isle
Where my fortress awaits
A 
to see and breathe
E 
The roads will explain the lonely music
F#m 
C#m 
B 
Of the resolute, of the half -blind
Bm 
From the saddest tunes,
E 
well I turn my face towards the city
A 
My heart filled with stories
like relics from the past
E 
Did I drown, did I choke,
C#m 
did I get   in your way?
F#m 
Bm 
B 
F#m 
That I'll waltz into the dark
Bm 
D

Don't put it in my head
