[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D D/F# G Bm7 A
When I was six years old I broke my leg
D D/F# G Bm7 A
And I was running from my brother and his friends
D D/F# G Bm7 A
And tasted the sweet perfume of the mountain grass I rolled down
D D/F# G Bm7 A
I was younger then, take me back to when I
[Pre-Chorus 1]
G A D
Found my heart and broke it here
G
Made friends and lost them through the years
A D G
And I've not seen the roaring fields in so long, I know I've grown
A
But I can't wait to go home
[Chorus 1]
D G Bm7 A
I'm on my way, driving at 90
D G Bm7 A
Down those country lanes, singing to Tiny Dancer
D G Bm7 A
And I miss the way you made me feel, it's real
D G Bm7 A D
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
[Verse 2]
D D/F# G Bm7 A
Fifteen years old and smoking hand-rolled cigarettes
D D/F# G Bm7 A
Running from the law through the backfields and getting drunk with my friends
D D/F# G Bm7 A
Had my first kiss on a Friday night, I don't reckon that I did it right
D D/F# G Bm7 A
I was younger then, take me back to when
[Pre-Chorus 2]
G A D
We found weekend jobs, when we got paid
G G
We'd buy cheap spirits and drink them straight
A D G
Me and my friends have not thrown up in so long, oh, how we've grown
G A
But I can't wait to go home
[Chorus 2]
D D/F# G Bm7 A
I'm on my way, driving at ninety
D D/F# G Bm7 A
Down those country lanes singing to Tiny Dancer
D D/F# G Bm7 A
And I miss the way you made me feel, it's real
D D/F# G Bm7 A
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
D G Bm7 A
Over the castle on the hill
D G Bm7 A
Over the castle on the hill
[Bridge]
Bm7 G D A
Bm7 G D A
One friend left to sell clothes, one works down by the coast
Bm7 G D A
One had two kids but lives alone, one's brother overdosed
Bm7 G D A
One's already on his second wife, one's just barely getting by
Bm7 G D A
But these people raised me and I can't wait to go home
[Chorus 3]
D G Bm7 A
And I'm on my way, I still remember
D D/F# G Bm7 A
These old country lanes when we did not know the answers
D D/F# G Bm7 A
And I miss the way you made me feel, it's real
D D/F# G Bm7 A
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
D G Bm7 A
Over the castle on the hill
D G Bm7 A
Over the castle on the hill
