Paul Weller – Old Castles chords

[Verse]
 Gm                DmMoonbeams and twilight
  F           Em         DmSit by the fireside and glow
 Gm               DmCasting grand shadows
  F        Em         DmAll on the meadows below

[Verse]
 Gm                 DmBut the old king is quiet
 Bb              C            DmLooks into the fire, I think he knows
 Gm                   DmThat his bubble has burst,
 Bb           C              Dmand what's worse is now it shows

[Pre-chorus]
 F                   CHis old world is changing
   Dm            C     BbBut he don't notice at all
 F                   CHis kingdom is crumbling
   Dm            C     Bb    CBut he can't see it and so, oh

[Chorus]
 Gm           Am        DmSome kings just don't care
 Gm           Am        DmHappy just to stare and stare
 Gm             AmAnd bad things will happen
 Gm           Am        DmThat cause old castles to fall

[Instrumental]
 Gm   Dm   F  Em  Dm
 Gm   Dm   F  Em  Dm

[Verse]
 Gm               DmHe could have done something
   F       Em       DmInspired a tired old Earth
 Gm                     DmDone something good, done something right
  F              Em                 DmWith which the people could unite and grow

[Pre-chorus]
 F                   CFor their old world is changing
   Dm            C     BbBut they don't notice at all
   F                   CTheir kingdoms are crumbling
   Dm            C     Bb    CBut they can't see it and so, oh

[Chorus]
 Gm           Am        DmSome kings just can't say no
 Gm           Am                   DmThey'll take till there's nothing to grow
 Gm             AmAnd bad things will happen
 Gm             Am         DmThat cause old castles to fall
 Gm             AmFor its roots are rotten
 Gm             AmIts old walls and all
 Gm                AmAnd bad things will happen
 Gm             AmThat cause old castles
 Gm             AmCause old castles
 Gm             Am    Dm    Gm  C  DCause old castles to fall          Oh
