Lyrics and Music by Ed Sheeran, Benjamin Levin


Intro: D5 | D5 | D5 | D5

D5                   G
When I was six years old
                Bm7 A              D5
I broke my leg,
          D5    G
I was running from my brother
    Bm7          A              D5
And his friends.
   D5      G
Tasted the sweet perfume
       Bm7
Of the mountain grass
   A                       D5
As I rolled down.
         D5    G     Bm7
I was younger then.
                A
Take me back to when

   A        D5
   I
    G            A              D
   Found my heart and broke it here,
   Made friends
       G
   And lost them through the years,
                  A
   And I’ve not seen
                  D
   The roaring fields in so long,
   G
   I know I’ve grown,
 A
   I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
     D           G
     I’m on my way,
     Bm7        A
     Driving at ninety down
     D              G
     Those country lanes,
     Bm7         A
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         D           G
     And I miss the way
             Bm7     A
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     D              G
     We watched the sunset
     Bm7      A               D5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: D5 | D5

D5            G
Fifteen years old and smoking
    Bm7                 A              D5
Hand-rolled cigarettes,
             D5     G
Running from the law through the backfields
   Bm7                 A                    D5
And getting drunk with my friends.
       D5    G                  Bm7
Had my first kiss on a Friday night,
        A                           D5
I don’t reckon that I did it right.
          D5    G     Bm7
I was younger then.
                A
Take me back to when

      A        D5 G
   We found
            A                 D
   Weekend jobs, when we got paid
                   G
   We’d buy cheap spirits
   And drink them straight.
                 A
   Me and my friends
                    D
   Have not thrown up in so long,
   G
   Oh, how we’ve grown,
 A
   I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
     D           G
     I’m on my way,
     Bm7        A
     Driving at ninety down
     D              G
     Those country lanes,
     Bm7         A
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         D           G
     And I miss the way
             Bm7     A
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     D              G
     We watched the sunset
     Bm7      A               D
     Over the castle on the hill,
           G
     Oooh,
     Bm7      A               D
     Over the castle on the hill,
           G
     Oooh,
     Bm7      A               D5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: Bm7 | G | D | A A

Bridge:
 Bm7            G
   One friend left to sell clothes,
 D             A
   One works down by the coast,
 Bm7             G
   One had two kids but lives alone,
 D        A
   One’s brother overdosed,
 Bm7          G
   One’s already on his second wife,
 D              A
   One’s just barely getting by
      Bm7              G
   But these people raised me
       D       A
   And I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
         D              G
     And I’m on my way,
     Bm7       A
     I still remember
            D              G
     These old country lanes
          Bm7        A
     When we did not know the answers
         D           G
     And I miss the way
             Bm7     A
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     D              G
     We watched the sunset
     Bm7      A               D
     Over the castle on the hill,
           G
     Oooh,
     Bm7      A               D
     Over the castle on the hill,
           G
     Oooh,
     Bm7      A               D5
     Over the castle on the hill.
