Lyrics and Music by Ed Sheeran, Benjamin Levin


Intro: B5 | B5 | B5 | B5

B5                    Esus2
When I was six years old
                G#m7 F#sus4        B5
I broke my leg,
                Esus2
I was running from my brother
    G#m7         F#sus4         B5
And his friends.
           Esus2
Tasted the sweet perfume
       G#m7
Of the mountain grass
   F#sus4                  B5
As I rolled down.
               Esus2 G#m7
I was younger then.
                F#sus4
Take me back to when

   F#sus4   B5
   I
    Emaj         F#sus4         B
   Found my heart and broke it here,
   Made friends
       E6    
   And lost them through the years,
 Emaj             F#sus4
   And I’ve not seen
                  B               
   The roaring fields in so long,
   E6    
   I know I’ve grown,
 F#sus4    F#6sus4
   I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
     B           E
     I’m on my way,
     G#m7       F#         
     Driving at ninety down
     B              E
     Those country lanes,
     G#m7        F#          
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         B           E
     And I miss the way
             G#m7    F#             
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     B              E
     We watched the sunset
     G#m7     F#              B5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: B5 | B5

B5             Esus2
Fifteen years old and smoking
    G#m7                F#sus4         B5
Hand-rolled cigarettes,
                    Esus2
Running from the law through the backfields
   G#m7                F#sus4               B5
And getting drunk with my friends.
             Esus2              G#m7
Had my first kiss on a Friday night,
        F#sus4                      B5
I don’t reckon that I did it right.
                Esus2 G#m7
I was younger then.
                F#sus4
Take me back to when

      F#sus4   B5 Emaj 
   We found
            F#sus4            B
   Weekend jobs, when we got paid
                   E6    
   We’d buy cheap spirits
   And drink them straight.
 Emaj            F#sus4
   Me and my friends
                    B             
   Have not thrown up in so long,
   E6    
   Oh, how we’ve grown,
 F#sus4    F#6sus4
   I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
     B           E
     I’m on my way,
     G#m7       F#         
     Driving at ninety down
     B              E
     Those country lanes,
     G#m7        F#          
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         B           E
     And I miss the way
             G#m7    F#             
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     B              E
     We watched the sunset
     G#m7     F#              B
     Over the castle on the hill,
           E
     Oooh,
     G#m7     F#              B
     Over the castle on the hill,
           E
     Oooh,
     G#m7     F#              B5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: G#m7 | Esus2 | B | F#sus4 F#

Bridge:
 G#m7           Esus2
   One friend left to sell clothes,
 B             F#sus4   F#  
   One works down by the coast,
 G#m7            Esus2
   One had two kids but lives alone,
 B        F#sus4   F#  
   One’s brother overdosed,
 G#m7         Esus2
   One’s already on his second wife,
 B              F#sus4   F#  
   One’s just barely getting by
      G#m7             Esus2
   But these people raised me
       B       F#sus4   F#  
   And I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
         Bsus2  Bmaj    Esus2
     And I’m on my way,
     G#m7      F#sus4  
     I still remember
            Bsus2  Bmaj    Esus2
     These old country lanes
          G#m7       F#sus4  
     When we did not know the answers
         B           E
     And I miss the way
             G#m7    F#             
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     B              E
     We watched the sunset
     G#m7     F#              B
     Over the castle on the hill,
           E
     Oooh,
     G#m7     F#              B
     Over the castle on the hill,
           E
     Oooh,
     G#m7     F#              B5
     Over the castle on the hill.

Instrumental: B5 | B5 | B5 | B5
