Lyrics and Music by Ed Sheeran, Benjamin Levin

Intro: D5 | D5 | D5 | D5

D5                    Gsus2
When I was six years old
                Bm7 Asus4          D5
I broke my leg,
                Gsus2
I was running from my brother
    Bm7          Asus4          D5
And his friends.
           Gsus2
Tasted the sweet perfume
       Bm7
Of the mountain grass
   Asus4                   D5
As I rolled down.
               Gsus2 Bm7
I was younger then.
                Asus4
Take me back to when

   Asus4    D5
   I
    Gmaj         Asus4          D
   Found my heart and broke it here,
   Made friends
       G6    
   And lost them through the years,
 Gmaj             Asus4
   And I’ve not seen
                  D               
   The roaring fields in so long,
   G6    
   I know I’ve grown,
 Asus4     A6sus4
   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             Gsus2
Fifteen years old and smoking
    Bm7                 Asus4          D5
Hand-rolled cigarettes,
                    Gsus2
Running from the law through the backfields
   Bm7                 Asus4                D5
And getting drunk with my friends.
             Gsus2              Bm7
Had my first kiss on a Friday night,
        Asus4                       D5
I don’t reckon that I did it right.
                Gsus2 Bm7
I was younger then.
                Asus4
Take me back to when

      Asus4    D5 Gmaj 
   We found
            Asus4             D
   Weekend jobs, when we got paid
                   G6    
   We’d buy cheap spirits
   And drink them straight.
 Gmaj            Asus4
   Me and my friends
                    D             
   Have not thrown up in so long,
   G6    
   Oh, how we’ve grown,
 Asus4     A6sus4
   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 | Gsus2 | D | Asus4 A

Bridge:
 Bm7            Gsus2
   One friend left to sell clothes,
 D             Asus4    A   
   One works down by the coast,
 Bm7             Gsus2
   One had two kids but lives alone,
 D        Asus4    A   
   One’s brother overdosed,
 Bm7          Gsus2
   One’s already on his second wife,
 D              Asus4    A   
   One’s just barely getting by
      Bm7              Gsus2
   But these people raised me
       D       Asus4    A   
   And I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
         Dsus2  Dmaj    Gsus2
     And I’m on my way,
     Bm7       Asus4   
     I still remember
            Dsus2  Dmaj    Gsus2
     These old country lanes
          Bm7        Asus4   
     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.

Instrumental: D5 | D5 | D5 | D5
