Lyrics and Music by Ed Sheeran, Benjamin Levin


Intro: A5 | A5 | A5 | A5

A5                    Dsus2
When I was six years old
                F#m7 Esus4         A5
I broke my leg,
                Dsus2
I was running from my brother
    F#m7         Esus4          A5
And his friends.
           Dsus2
Tasted the sweet perfume
       F#m7
Of the mountain grass
   Esus4                   A5
As I rolled down.
               Dsus2 F#m7
I was younger then.
                Esus4
Take me back to when

   Esus4    A5
   I
    Dmaj         Esus4          A
   Found my heart and broke it here,
   Made friends
       D6    
   And lost them through the years,
 Dmaj             Esus4
   And I’ve not seen
                  A               
   The roaring fields in so long,
   D6    
   I know I’ve grown,
 Esus4     E6sus4
   I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
     A           D
     I’m on my way,
     F#m7       E          
     Driving at ninety down
     A              D
     Those country lanes,
     F#m7        E           
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         A           D
     And I miss the way
             F#m7    E              
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     A              D
     We watched the sunset
     F#m7     E               A5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: A5 | A5

A5             Dsus2
Fifteen years old and smoking
    F#m7                Esus4          A5
Hand-rolled cigarettes,
                    Dsus2
Running from the law through the backfields
   F#m7                Esus4                A5
And getting drunk with my friends.
             Dsus2              F#m7
Had my first kiss on a Friday night,
        Esus4                       A5
I don’t reckon that I did it right.
                Dsus2 F#m7
I was younger then.
                Esus4
Take me back to when

      Esus4    A5 Dmaj 
   We found
            Esus4             A
   Weekend jobs, when we got paid
                   D6    
   We’d buy cheap spirits
   And drink them straight.
 Dmaj            Esus4
   Me and my friends
                    A             
   Have not thrown up in so long,
   D6    
   Oh, how we’ve grown,
 Esus4     E6sus4
   I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
     A           D
     I’m on my way,
     F#m7       E          
     Driving at ninety down
     A              D
     Those country lanes,
     F#m7        E           
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         A           D
     And I miss the way
             F#m7    E              
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     A              D
     We watched the sunset
     F#m7     E               A
     Over the castle on the hill,
           D
     Oooh,
     F#m7     E               A
     Over the castle on the hill,
           D
     Oooh,
     F#m7     E               A5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: F#m7 | Dsus2 | A | Esus4 E

Bridge:
 F#m7           Dsus2
   One friend left to sell clothes,
 A             Esus4    E   
   One works down by the coast,
 F#m7            Dsus2
   One had two kids but lives alone,
 A        Esus4    E   
   One’s brother overdosed,
 F#m7         Dsus2
   One’s already on his second wife,
 A              Esus4    E   
   One’s just barely getting by
      F#m7             Dsus2
   But these people raised me
       A       Esus4    E   
   And I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
         Asus2  Amaj    Dsus2
     And I’m on my way,
     F#m7      Esus4   
     I still remember
            Asus2  Amaj    Dsus2
     These old country lanes
          F#m7       Esus4   
     When we did not know the answers
         A           D
     And I miss the way
             F#m7    E              
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     A              D
     We watched the sunset
     F#m7     E               A
     Over the castle on the hill,
           D
     Oooh,
     F#m7     E               A
     Over the castle on the hill,
           D
     Oooh,
     F#m7     E               A5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: A5 | A5 | A5 | A5
