There are two ways of playing this song, with a capo on 5, or without a capo.
Kate plays it live with the capo, and that version is easier to play, but I think
the version without the capo sounds closer to the album version, and has the advantage
that you don’t need to have a capo to play it, although the chords are a little harder.
So I tabbed the whole song with the chords for the capo version. If you want to play
it without the capo you have to play a C instead of a G, a F instead of Cadd9/C,
A G instead of D, etc.
At Live shows Kate sometimes play a Cadd9 and others play a C, but they sound pretty
much the same, so you can choose which one you prefer to play.

Cadd9 G
I got this ticket in my hand
Cadd9 D G
And I got a long, long day ahead
Em7 Am
And I got a hell of a lot of reasons to be sad
C D G
But I've got a hundred more that keep me coming back
Cadd9 G
I got these worn out red boots on
Cadd9 D G
And I got a brand new favorite song
Em7 Am
And I can name some people who'd say that I got it all wrong
C D G
But I know plenty more who've been there all along
G
I'd rather make sandcastles
D Em7
Instead of these wide-world decisions
Cadd9 D
I knew, I knew it all was catching up to me, yeah
G
And I don't have a plan at all
D Em7
But I got this six-string religion
Cadd9 Am
And I do, I do believe a song can heal me
D G
It's enough for me, yeah
Cadd9 D G
Cadd9 G
I had this picture in my head
Cadd9 D G
Of where I oughta be and when
Em7 Am
But it's just like the good advice that John gave when he said,
C D G
"Life, it happens while you're busy making plans"
G
I'd rather make sandcastles
D Em7
Instead of these wide-world decisions
Cadd9 D
I knew, I knew it all was catching up to me, yeah
G
And I don't have a plan at all
D Em7
But I got this six-string religion
Cadd9 Am
And I do, I do believe a song can heal me
D G
It's enough for me, yeah
Cadd9 D
Cadd9 G
Where I'm laughing is where I'm home
Cadd9 D G
But you know how fast it makes the time go
Em7 Am
And there was nothing like the first time that I saw open road
C D G
And wasn't terrified to ride it on my own
Cadd9 G
I got my heart in the right place
Cadd9 D G
But that place is millions of miles away
Em7 Am
And I suppose I never will know the perfect words to say
C D G
But I'll keep searching till they find me one fine day
G
I'd rather make sandcastles
D Em7
Instead of these wide-world decisions
Cadd9 D
I knew, I knew it all was catching up to me, yeah
G
And I don't have a plan at all
D Em7
But I got this six-string religion
Cadd9 Am
And I do, I do believe a song can heal me
D G Cadd9
It's enough for me, yeah
D G Cadd9
It's enough for me, yeah Oooh
D G
It's enough for me, yeah
