[Verse 1]
G G/B Cadd9 Em D
When I was six years old I broke my leg
G G/B Cadd9 Em D
And I was running from my brother and his friends
G G/B Cadd9 Em D
And tasted the sweet perfume of the mountain grass as I rolled down
G G/B Cadd9 Em D
I was younger then, take me back to when I
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Cadd9 D G
Found my heart and broke it here
Cadd9
Made friends and lost them through the years
Cadd9 D G Cadd9
And I've not seen the roaring fields in so long, I know I've grown
Cadd9 D
But I can't wait to go home
[Chorus 1]
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
I'm on my way, driving at ninety
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
Down those country lanes singing to Tiny Dancer
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
And I miss the way you make me feel and it's real
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4 G
When we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
[Verse 2]
G G/B Cadd9 Em D
Fifteen years old and smoking hand-rolled cigarettes
G G/B Cadd9 Em D
Running from the law through the backfields and getting drunk with my friends
G G/B Cadd9 Em D
Had my first kiss on a Friday night, I don't reckon I did it
G G/B Cadd9 Em D
Right, I was younger then, take me back to when we found
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Cadd9 D G
Weekend jobs and when we got paid
Cadd9 Cadd9
We'd buy cheap spirits and drink them straight
D G Cadd9
Me and my friends have not thrown up in so long, oh how we've grown
Cadd9 D
But I can't wait to go home
[Chorus 2]
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
I'm on my way, driving at ninety
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
Down those country lanes singing to Tiny Dancer
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
And I miss the way you make me feel and it's real
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
Over the castle on the hill
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
Over the castle on the hill
[Bridge]
Em C G D7sus4
Em Cadd9 G D7sus4
One friend left to sell clothes and, one works down by the coast
Em Cadd9 G D7sus4
One had two kids but lives alone, one's brother overdosed
Em Cadd9 G D7sus4
One's already on his second wife, one's just barely getting by but
Em Cadd9 G D7sus4
These people raised me and I-I-I, can't wait to go home
[Chorus 3]
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
And I'm on my way, I still remember
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
These old country lanes when we did not know the answers
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
And I miss the way you make me feel and it's real
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
Over the castle on the hill
G G/B Cadd9 Em D7sus4
Over the castle on the hill
G
