Biography:
James Marshall "Jimi" Hendrix (born Johnny Allen Hendrix; November 27, 1942 – September 18, 1970) was an American rock guitarist, singer, and songwriter. Although his mainstream career spanned only four years, he is widely regarded as one of the most influential electric guitarists in the history of popular music, and one of the most celebrated musicians of the 20th century. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame describes him as "arguably the greatest instrumentalist in the history of rock music".

[Verse 1]
F
Down the street you can hear her scream you're a disgrace
Am
As she slams the door in his drunken face
Em7
And now he stands outside
F C G
And all the neighbors start to gossip and drool
F
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
Am
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Em7
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
F C G
And his tears fall and burn the garden green
[Chorus]
G D F C
And so castles made of sand fall in the sea, eventually
[Verse 2]
F
A little Indian brave who before he was ten,
Am
Played war games in the woods with his Indian friends
Em7
And he built up a dream that when he grew up
F C G
He would be a fearless warrior Indian Cheif
F
Many moons past and more the dream grew strong until
A5 Em7
Tomorrow he would sing his first war song and fight his first battle
F C G
But something went wrong, surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night
[Chorus]
G D F C G
And so castles made of sand melts into the sea, eventually
[Verse 3]
F
There was a young girl, who's heart was a frown
Am
Cause she was crippled for life,
And she couldn't speak a sound
Em7 F
And she wished and prayed she could stop living,
C G
So she decided to die
F# F
She drew her wheelchair to the edge of the shore
A5
And to her legs she smiled you wont hurt me no more
Em7
But then a sight she'd never seen made her jump and say
F C G
Look a golden winged ship is passing my way
G D F C G
And it really didn't have to stop, it just kept on going...
G D C C
And so castles made of sand slips into the sea, eventually
