      [Intro]
A E (2X)

[Verse]
A                                               E
A ship took off in the night left you on your own
                                A
Just a castaway far away from home
                                           E
All the castles you build you build with sand
                                                         C#m
And now their slipping away through the cracks in your hands

[Prechorus] Hold chords
        B           A
I'll be honest with you
C#m               B       A
    This won't be easy on you

[Chorus]
E
You can take off my friend it will not be in vain
A
Although there's clouds ahead and it's about to rain
C#m
If you can wait it out you'll see the sky is blue
A
And all the love you gave it will come back to you

[Instrumental]
C#m B Hold A

[Verse]
A                                     E
Waves upon the rocks keep you up at night
                                               A
And the ship you missed now will be on your side
                                            E
The ground at your feet is not the only shore
                                         C#m
You can cross the sea when you find an oar

[Prechorus] Hold chords
        B           A
I'll be honest with you
C#m                B      A
    This won't be easy on you

[Chorus]
E
You can take off my friend it will not be in vain
A
Although there's clouds ahead and it's about to rain
C#m
If you can wait it out you'll see the sky is blue
A
And all the love you gave it will come back to you

[Break] (Same as chorus) play once through and stop on E
E A C#m A 

[Bridge]
Palm muting only playing the bass notes, slowly gets louder
E
It will not be in vain it will come back to you
A
It will not be in vain it will come back to you
C#m
It will not be in vain it will come back to you
A
It will not be in vain it will come back to you
E
It will not be in vain it will come back to you
A
It will not be in vain it will come back to you
C#m
It will not be in vain it will come back to you
A
It will not be in vain it will come back to you

[Outro]
E
You can take off my friend it will not be in vain
A
Although there's clouds above and it's about to rain
C#m
If you can wait it out you'll see the sky is blue
A                                                     E A
And all the love you gave it will come back to you
                     C#m
It will come back to you
                     A
It will come back to you
                     E
It will come back to you
