Castles And Dreams Cifras

Castles and Dreams
 
I noticed that there were a ton of tabs for this, but no chords, so I decided to figure
some out. It’s not 100% accurate, but it fits when played along with the song.
 
3/4 time signature. I HAVE figured out super-simplified versions
of the fancy riffs played between the verses, and will update when I have the tabs written out.
 
NOTE ABOUT ALTERNATE STRUMMING PATTERN:
Instead of letting the notes ring out (as in pattern one), you can just accent the main rhythm strums and do
softer strums in between
 
 
[Intro]
x2 (background to guitar solo. Each chord = 1 measure):
F#m  F#m  C#  F#m
 
 
[Verse]
F#m   D            E           A
 Solitaire with a song in her heart
     D            E        A
But what is that song to sing?
F#m          D      C#          F#m
Turned her back on all that she knew
         D          E     A
In the hopes of a golden ring
 
 
[Chorus]
         F#m    D   E
And the rains came down
         F#m   D             E
And the stars fell from the sky
        F#m  D    E
Oh how dark the night
     D      A           E          F#m
It always seems those castles and dreams
 D              E      F#
Fade with the morning light
   C#
(guitar solo)
 
 
[Verse]
F#m     D   E A
Such a sad story
      D     E       A
That time loves to tell
F#m      D    C#           F#m
Copper coins shine for the sun
           D           E       A
From the floor of the wishing well
 
 
[Chorus]
         F#m    D   E
And the rains came down
         F#m   D             E
And the stars fell from the sky
        F#m  D    E
Oh how dark the night
     D      A           E          F#m
It always seems those castles and dreams
 D              E      F#
Fade with the morning light
   F#
(guitar solo)
 
 
[Bridge]
 D         F#m        D                  F#m
La dah dah…la dah dah…la dah dah, dah dah dah
 D         F#m         D          C#
La dah dah…la dah dah…la dah dah dah
 
 
[Verse]
F#m      D        E   A
So the jewel of jeopardy
  D               E         A
Shines with each dangerous step
F#m   D      C#m          F#m
So unsure of what we’ve become
         D        E            A
What we have and what we have left
 
 
[Chorus]
         F#m    D   E
And the rains came down
         F#m   D             E
And the stars fell from the sky
        F#m  D    E
Oh how dark the night
     D      A           E          F#m
It always seems those castles and dreams
 D              E      F#
Fade with the morning light
         F#m    D   E
And the rains came down
         F#m   D             E
And the stars fell from the sky
        F#m  D    E
Oh how dark the night
     D      A           E          F#m
It always seems those castles and dreams
 D              E      F#
Fade with the morning light
 
 
[Outro]
     D      A           E          F#m
It always seems those castles and dreams
 D              E       F#
Fade with the morning light
