CASTLES IN THE SAND - Thunder
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Kengus
>>Thunder was a great band that didn't get as much attention as they
would've deserved. This is one of their great rock songs. The chorus
and interlude are played with power chords I think. Try it out.
