Intro: E5 | E5 | E5 | E5

E5                    Asus2
When I was six years old
                C#m7 Bsus4         E5
I broke my leg,
                Asus2
I was running from my brother
    C#m7         Bsus4          E5
And his friends.
           Asus2
Tasted the sweet perfume
       C#m7
Of the mountain grass
   Bsus4                   E5
As I rolled down.
               Asus2 C#m7
I was younger then.
                Bsus4
Take me back to when

   Bsus4    E5
   I
    Amaj         Bsus4          E
   Found my heart and broke it here,
   Made friends
       A6    
   And lost them through the years,
 Amaj             Bsus4
   And I’ve not seen
                  E               
   The roaring fields in so long,
   A6    
   I know I’ve grown,
 Bsus4     B6sus4
   I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
     E           A
     I’m on my way,
     C#m7       B          
     Driving at ninety down
     E              A
     Those country lanes,
     C#m7        B           
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         E           A
     And I miss the way
             C#m7    B              
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     E              A
     We watched the sunset
     C#m7     B               E5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: E5 | E5

E5             Asus2
Fifteen years old and smoking
    C#m7                Bsus4          E5
Hand-rolled cigarettes,
                    Asus2
Running from the law through the backfields
   C#m7                Bsus4                E5
And getting drunk with my friends.
             Asus2              C#m7
Had my first kiss on a Friday night,
        Bsus4                       E5
I don’t reckon that I did it right.
                Asus2 C#m7
I was younger then.
                Bsus4
Take me back to when

      Bsus4    E5 Amaj 
   We found
            Bsus4             E
   Weekend jobs, when we got paid
                   A6    
   We’d buy cheap spirits
   And drink them straight.
 Amaj            Bsus4
   Me and my friends
                    E             
   Have not thrown up in so long,
   A6    
   Oh, how we’ve grown,
 Bsus4     B6sus4
   I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
     E           A
     I’m on my way,
     C#m7       B          
     Driving at ninety down
     E              A
     Those country lanes,
     C#m7        B           
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         E           A
     And I miss the way
             C#m7    B              
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     E              A
     We watched the sunset
     C#m7     B               E
     Over the castle on the hill,
           A
     Oooh,
     C#m7     B               E
     Over the castle on the hill,
           A
     Oooh,
     C#m7     B               E5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: C#m7 | Asus2 | E | Bsus4 B

Bridge:
 C#m7           Asus2
   One friend left to sell clothes,
 E             Bsus4    B   
   One works down by the coast,
 C#m7            Asus2
   One had two kids but lives alone,
 E        Bsus4    B   
   One’s brother overdosed,
 C#m7         Asus2
   One’s already on his second wife,
 E              Bsus4    B   
   One’s just barely getting by
      C#m7             Asus2
   But these people raised me
       E       Bsus4    B   
   And I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
         Esus2  Emaj    Asus2
     And I’m on my way,
     C#m7      Bsus4   
     I still remember
            Esus2  Emaj    Asus2
     These old country lanes
          C#m7       Bsus4   
     When we did not know the answers
         E           A
     And I miss the way
             C#m7    B              
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     E              A
     We watched the sunset
     C#m7     B               E
     Over the castle on the hill,
           A
     Oooh,
     C#m7     B               E
     Over the castle on the hill,
           A
     Oooh,
     C#m7     B               E5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: E5 | E5 | E5 | E5
