[Verse 1]

N.C.   B        E      A   Amaj7 C#m7/G#

I have all my things away

    F#m F#m  G#m       C#m

In here,          with me

C#m    B         E     A   Amaj7 C#m7/G#

I can get them when I need

     F#m F#m  G#m    C#m

But not           today

  C#m      B        E F#m7 E/G  A   Amaj7 C#m7/G#

What's the use in trying   to stay

   F#m F#m  G#m      C#m

Inside          the seams

  C#m       B            E F#7 E/G   A    Amaj7 C#m7/G#

Where you stitched your hopes  and dreams

     F#m      Asus2

Back in  the day





[Chorus]

A            B           G#               A

  There are some who will always let you down

A            B             G#           A

  There are people who will chain your feet to the ground

A               B              G#          A

  White picket castles were built to fall down

      G#m  F#m

  To fall down



F#m F#m F#m    F#m       F#m





[Post-Chorus]

  E              A          B

This old sunken vessel is where I sleep

E                 A             B

It's not worth a nickel but it pays my keep

  E                        A 

Where's your white picket castle but 

  B        C#m      B    F#m

Where you seat yourself now?



C#m C#m C#m    C#m





[Solo]

F#m F#m G#m C#m C#m C#m    C#m



[Verse 2]

N.C.    B       E        A   Amaj7 C#m7/G#

Walk until my knees get weak

   F#m F#m G#m        C#m

My eyes,       they stare

 C#m     B      E      A   Amaj7 C#m7/G#

Sunken, tangled in my hair

      F#m F#m G#m        C#m

They comb         the street

  C#m    B        E F#m7 E/G  A   Amaj7 C#m7/G#

Spare a piece of something   deep

     F#m F#m G#m     C#m

For me          to share

C#m      B        E F#7 E/G  A    A C#m7/G#

If it's something I    can  wear

      F#m      Asus2

It's yours to keep





[Pre-Chorus]



A            B           G#               A

  There are some who will always let you down

A            B             G#           A

  There are people who will chain your feet to the ground

A               B              G#          A

  White picket castles were built to fall down

      G#m  F#m

  To fall down



F#m F#m F#m    F#m     F#m





[Post-Chorus]

  E              A          B

This old sunken vessel is where I sleep

E                 A             B

It's not worth a nickel but it pays my keep

Oh yeah yeah yeah

  E              A          B

This old sunken vessel is where I sleep

E                 A             B

It's not worth a nickel but it pays my keep

     E                        A

Oh where's your white picket castle but
