Lyrics and Music by Ed Sheeran, Benjamin Levin


Intro: G5 | G5 | G5 | G5

G5                    Csus2
When I was six years old
                Em7 Dsus4          G5
I broke my leg,
                Csus2
I was running from my brother
    Em7          Dsus4          G5
And his friends.
           Csus2
Tasted the sweet perfume
       Em7
Of the mountain grass
   Dsus4                   G5
As I rolled down.
               Csus2 Em7
I was younger then.
                Dsus4
Take me back to when

   Dsus4    G5
   I
    Cmaj         Dsus4          G
   Found my heart and broke it here,
   Made friends
       C6    
   And lost them through the years,
 Cmaj             Dsus4
   And I’ve not seen
                  G               
   The roaring fields in so long,
   C6    
   I know I’ve grown,
 Dsus4     D6sus4
   I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
     G           C
     I’m on my way,
     Em7        D          
     Driving at ninety down
     G              C
     Those country lanes,
     Em7         D           
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         G           C
     And I miss the way
             Em7     D              
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     G              C
     We watched the sunset
     Em7      D               G5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: G5 | G5

G5             Csus2
Fifteen years old and smoking
    Em7                 Dsus4          G5
Hand-rolled cigarettes,
                    Csus2
Running from the law through the backfields
   Em7                 Dsus4                G5
And getting drunk with my friends.
             Csus2              Em7
Had my first kiss on a Friday night,
        Dsus4                       G5
I don’t reckon that I did it right.
                Csus2 Em7
I was younger then.
                Dsus4
Take me back to when

      Dsus4    G5 Cmaj 
   We found
            Dsus4             G
   Weekend jobs, when we got paid
                   C6    
   We’d buy cheap spirits
   And drink them straight.
 Cmaj            Dsus4
   Me and my friends
                    G             
   Have not thrown up in so long,
   C6    
   Oh, how we’ve grown,
 Dsus4     D6sus4
   I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
     G           C
     I’m on my way,
     Em7        D          
     Driving at ninety down
     G              C
     Those country lanes,
     Em7         D           
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         G           C
     And I miss the way
             Em7     D              
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     G              C
     We watched the sunset
     Em7      D               G
     Over the castle on the hill,
           C
     Oooh,
     Em7      D               G
     Over the castle on the hill,
           C
     Oooh,
     Em7      D               G5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: Em7 | Csus2 | G | Dsus4 D

Bridge:
 Em7            Csus2
   One friend left to sell clothes,
 G             Dsus4    D   
   One works down by the coast,
 Em7             Csus2
   One had two kids but lives alone,
 G        Dsus4    D   
   One’s brother overdosed,
 Em7          Csus2
   One’s already on his second wife,
 G              Dsus4    D   
   One’s just barely getting by
      Em7              Csus2
   But these people raised me
       G       Dsus4    D   
   And I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
         Gsus2  Gmaj    Csus2
     And I’m on my way,
     Em7       Dsus4   
     I still remember
            Gsus2  Gmaj    Csus2
     These old country lanes
          Em7        Dsus4   
     When we did not know the answers
         G           C
     And I miss the way
             Em7     D              
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     G              C
     We watched the sunset
     Em7      D               G
     Over the castle on the hill,
           C
     Oooh,
     Em7      D               G
     Over the castle on the hill,
           C
     Oooh,
     Em7      D               G5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: G5 | G5 | G5 | G5
