Lyrics and Music by Ed Sheeran, Benjamin Levin


Intro: C#5 | C#5 | C#5 | C#5

C#5                   F#sus2
When I was six years old
                Bbm7 G#sus4        C#5
I broke my leg,
                F#sus2
I was running from my brother
    Bbm7         G#sus4         C#5
And his friends.
           F#sus2
Tasted the sweet perfume
       Bbm7
Of the mountain grass
   G#sus4                  C#5
As I rolled down.
               F#sus2 Bbm7
I was younger then.
                G#sus4
Take me back to when

   G#sus4   C#5
   I
    F#maj        G#sus4         C#
   Found my heart and broke it here,
   Made friends
       F#6   
   And lost them through the years,
 F#maj            G#sus4
   And I’ve not seen
                  C#              
   The roaring fields in so long,
   F#6   
   I know I’ve grown,
 G#sus4    G#6sus4
   I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
     C#          F#
     I’m on my way,
     Bbm7       G#         
     Driving at ninety down
     C#             F#
     Those country lanes,
     Bbm7        G#          
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         C#          F#
     And I miss the way
             Bbm7    G#             
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     C#             F#
     We watched the sunset
     Bbm7     G#              C#5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: C#5 | C#5

C#5            F#sus2
Fifteen years old and smoking
    Bbm7                G#sus4         C#5
Hand-rolled cigarettes,
                    F#sus2
Running from the law through the backfields
   Bbm7                G#sus4               C#5
And getting drunk with my friends.
             F#sus2             Bbm7
Had my first kiss on a Friday night,
        G#sus4                      C#5
I don’t reckon that I did it right.
                F#sus2 Bbm7
I was younger then.
                G#sus4
Take me back to when

      G#sus4   C#5 F#maj 
   We found
            G#sus4            C#
   Weekend jobs, when we got paid
                   F#6   
   We’d buy cheap spirits
   And drink them straight.
 F#maj           G#sus4
   Me and my friends
                    C#            
   Have not thrown up in so long,
   F#6   
   Oh, how we’ve grown,
 G#sus4    G#6sus4
   I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
     C#          F#
     I’m on my way,
     Bbm7       G#         
     Driving at ninety down
     C#             F#
     Those country lanes,
     Bbm7        G#          
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         C#          F#
     And I miss the way
             Bbm7    G#             
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     C#             F#
     We watched the sunset
     Bbm7     G#              C#
     Over the castle on the hill,
           F#
     Oooh,
     Bbm7     G#              C#
     Over the castle on the hill,
           F#
     Oooh,
     Bbm7     G#              C#5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: Bbm7 | F#sus2 | C# | G#sus4 G#

Bridge:
 Bbm7           F#sus2
   One friend left to sell clothes,
 C#            G#sus4   G#  
   One works down by the coast,
 Bbm7            F#sus2
   One had two kids but lives alone,
 C#       G#sus4   G#  
   One’s brother overdosed,
 Bbm7         F#sus2
   One’s already on his second wife,
 C#             G#sus4   G#  
   One’s just barely getting by
      Bbm7             F#sus2
   But these people raised me
       C#      G#sus4   G#  
   And I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
         C#sus2 C#maj   F#sus2
     And I’m on my way,
     Bbm7      G#sus4  
     I still remember
            C#sus2 C#maj   F#sus2
     These old country lanes
          Bbm7       G#sus4  
     When we did not know the answers
         C#          F#
     And I miss the way
             Bbm7    G#             
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     C#             F#
     We watched the sunset
     Bbm7     G#              C#
     Over the castle on the hill,
           F#
     Oooh,
     Bbm7     G#              C#
     Over the castle on the hill,
           F#
     Oooh,
     Bbm7     G#              C#5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: C#5 | C#5 | C#5 | C#5
