[Am] [Cm] [A]
[D] I really wanted [Cm] her hand to touch her knee
I really wanted [F] to share forgotten dreams
Go through the [G] motions of loving from afar
[Ab] And feel as if [D] I'm reaching for the [C] stars
But each drop of hopelessness [Gm] amounts
To [F] what could be a [Fm] raging sea
It could be [G] springtime, [C] I'd meet her at the [D]
gates
[Ab] If you see in the continent those [C] who wait
[C] Castles [Cm] in the air
[Eb] If only they were there
[Gm] Just like a [Ab] beatnik love affair
[D] Those [G] castles in the air
[Cm] So [G] let me look into the windows of your soul
Let me make the most [F] of what I'll never know
We'll eat forbidden [Cm] fruits and sing our favourite songs
And [Fm] never tell each other we're [G] wrong
Each drop of [C] tenderness you'd give
Would be another reason [F] why I'd want to live
Would be another chance to sit beneath the stars
[D] And whisper [G] to each other [C] in the dark
[Fm] Castles in the air
If [Eb] only they were there
With [Ab] you so free and unaware
[G]
Watching [Cm] castles in the air
Why [G]

[G]
[Cm]
[Gm] [Cm]
[Em] should a lonely person care?
What [Am] can a lonely [Am] person share?
A broken heart [Em] is much too hard to renovate
[C] Because beauty never comes [E] to those who wait
And [Am] romance is a word
That [G] should be seen but never heard
I [C] don't even know your [B] name
But [Am] castles in the air
We [G] were almost there
[C] We almost [B] shared
[Am] Castles in the air
[G] If only they were there
Just [C] like a beatnik love [B] affair
[Am] Castles in the air
