[Verse 1]
D
Listen up closely
Gb
This ain’t no lullaby
D
There once was a man made of sand
Gb
who was never satisfied
Em
The summers were always too hot
A
Winters always too cold
Em
He just needed someone
A
to have and to hold
D Gm
But when the snow began to fall
D Gm
it buried his feet
D Gm
and they froze to the sidewalk
Em A
right there by the street
[Verse 2]
Bm
Soon he drifted asleep
Gb
and dreamed of a girl
Bm
Her body was made of the snow
Gb
and her eyes were of pearl
Em
They danced in the courtyard
A
Their love couldn’t hide
Em
She gave him a heart made of gold
A
and he made her his bride
D Gm
And when he awoke
D Gm
there she stood by his side
D Gm
though his feet were still frozen
Em A
he was warm inside
Bm
But when the spring came again
Gb
she melted away
Bm
and his body was shattered
Gb
that she couldn’t stay
Em A
Poor old Mr. Sad-man
Em A
he’s haunted my dreams
Em
Now his sands are scattered
A
drifted like his queen
D Gm
I hope they’ll be born again
D Gm
in a statue made of stone
D Gm
forever in the courtyard
Em A
where they’ll never be alone
