Verse 1:
Cm                     Eb
Crash land out in the desert
                      Bb
Picking through the wreckage
              Cm    Bb
With shaking hands
Cm                    Eb
Ash and embers still burning
                Bb
Propeller still turning
Gm              Cm
   Churning the sand

Chorus:
Ab           Eb
Lover oh my lover
               Gm             Cm
I know I'm not easy to understand
Ab                  Eb
Cover darling take cover
             Gm
For I am the sandstorm
                 Cm
And you are the sand

          Last night was painful in hindsight
                   Bb
Like a drunk in a bar fight
              Cm    Bb
Ashamed and alone
Cm                        Eb
You’re like a fox in the headlights
                         Bb
Running out through the dark night
Gm            Cm
  Silent as stone

Lover oh my lover

I've never been easy to understand
Ab                  Eb

And you are the sand
