Verse One:

Em                         Am           B7
Theres no more wind to be found in the sails
Em                         Am        B7
Hands full of fallen stars and comet tails
Em                 Am                B7
Rivers of sand unentwine through my hands
Em                                   Am          B7
To know what theyve seen, well, my burdens all pale


Pre-Chorus:


(Begin Strumming)


Em                              Am    G
Ill make an hourglass from my fingers
Em                        Am    Em
I know Im only passing through


Chorus:

[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/h/hands_like_houses/oceandust_tab.html ]
Em               CM7               D             Em
I dont want to pretend that Im stronger for it all
Em               CM7               D        Em
I dont want to pretend that the sadness is gone
Em                       Am               Em
Cause I wanna know that Im steady on my feet
Em               CM7             D               Em
I dont want to pretend so peace will be real to me


(Resume picking pattern)

Bridge:

Em                        Am           B7
Theres no respite to be found in the waves
Em                         Am              B7
Each rise and retreat will scrub the blood away


Pre-Chorus:


(Begin Strumming)


Em                              Am    G

I know Im only passing through

Chorus:

Em               CM7               D             Em
I dont want to pretend that I’m stronger for it all
Em               CM7               D        Em
I dont want to pretend that the sadness is gone
Em                       Am               Em
