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.
