Lyrics and Music by Ed Sheeran, Benjamin Levin


Intro: F#5 | F#5 | F#5 | F#5

F#5                  B
When I was six years old
                Ebm7 C#            F#5
I broke my leg,
          F#5   B
I was running from my brother
    Ebm7         C#             F#5
And his friends.
   F#5     B
Tasted the sweet perfume
       Ebm7
Of the mountain grass
   C#                      F#5
As I rolled down.
         F#5   B     Ebm7
I was younger then.
                C#
Take me back to when

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

Chorus:
     F#          B
     I’m on my way,
     Ebm7       C#
     Driving at ninety down
     F#             B
     Those country lanes,
     Ebm7        C#
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         F#          B
     And I miss the way
             Ebm7    C#
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     F#             B
     We watched the sunset
     Ebm7     C#              F#5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: F#5 | F#5

F#5           B
Fifteen years old and smoking
    Ebm7                C#             F#5
Hand-rolled cigarettes,
             F#5    B
Running from the law through the backfields
   Ebm7                C#                   F#5
And getting drunk with my friends.
       F#5   B                  Ebm7
Had my first kiss on a Friday night,
        C#                          F#5
I don’t reckon that I did it right.
          F#5   B     Ebm7
I was younger then.
                C#
Take me back to when

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

Chorus:
     F#          B
     I’m on my way,
     Ebm7       C#
     Driving at ninety down
     F#             B
     Those country lanes,
     Ebm7        C#
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         F#          B
     And I miss the way
             Ebm7    C#
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     F#             B
     We watched the sunset
     Ebm7     C#              F#
     Over the castle on the hill,
           B
     Oooh,
     Ebm7     C#              F#
     Over the castle on the hill,
           B
     Oooh,
     Ebm7     C#              F#5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: Ebm7 | B | F# | C# C#

Bridge:
 Ebm7           B
   One friend left to sell clothes,
 F#            C#
   One works down by the coast,
 Ebm7            B
   One had two kids but lives alone,
 F#       C#
   One’s brother overdosed,
 Ebm7         B
   One’s already on his second wife,
 F#             C#
   One’s just barely getting by
      Ebm7             B
   But these people raised me
       F#      C#
   And I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
         F#             B
     And I’m on my way,
     Ebm7      C#
     I still remember
            F#             B
     These old country lanes
          Ebm7       C#
     When we did not know the answers
         F#          B
     And I miss the way
             Ebm7    C#
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     F#             B
     We watched the sunset
     Ebm7     C#              F#
     Over the castle on the hill,
           B
     Oooh,
     Ebm7     C#              F#
     Over the castle on the hill,
           B
     Oooh,
     Ebm7     C#              F#5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: F#5 | F#5 | F#5 | F#5
