(D)When I was six years (G)old I broke my leg (Bm) (A)
(D)And I was running (G)from my brother and (Bm)his friends (A)
(D)And tasted the (G)sweet perfume of the (Bm)mountain grass as I (A)rolled down
(D)I was younger (G)then,(Bm)take me back to (A)when I

(G)Found my (A)heart and broke it (D)here
Made friends and (G)lost them through the years
(G)And I’ve not (A)seen the roaring (D)fields in so long, I (G)know I’ve grown
(G)But I can’t (A)wait to go home

(D)I’m on my (G)way,(Bm)driving at (A)ninety
Down (D)those country (G)lanes (Bm)singing to (A)Tiny Dancer
And (D)I miss the (G)way you make (Bm)me feel (A)and it’s real
(D)we watched the (G)sunset (Bm)over the (A)castle on the hill (D)

(D)Fifteen years (G)old and smoking (Bm)hand-rolled cigarettes (A)
(D)Running from the law (G)through the backfields and (Bm)getting drunk with my (A)friends
(D)Had my first (G)kiss on a Friday (Bm)night, I don’t (A)reckon I did it
(D)Right, I was younger (G)then, (Bm)take me back to (A)when we found

(G)Weekend (A)jobs and when we got (D)paid
We’d buy cheap (G)spirits and drink them straight
Me and my (A)friends have not thrown (D)up in so long, (G)oh how we’ve grown
(G)But I can’t (A)wait to go home

(D)I’m on my (G)way,(Bm)driving at (A)ninety
Down (D)those country (G)lanes (Bm)singing to (A)Tiny Dancer
And (D)I miss the (G)way you make (Bm)me feel (A)and it’s real
(D)we watched the (G)sunset (Bm)over the (A)castle on the hill (D)
(D) .. (G) .. (Bm)Over the (A)castle on the hill
(D) .. (G) .. (Bm)Over the (A)castle on the hill

(Bm) .. (G) .. (D) .. (A)

(Bm)One friend (G)left to sell clothes and, (D)one works (A)down by the coast
(Bm)One had two (G)kids but lives alone, (D)one’s (A)brother overdosed
(Bm)One’s (G)already on his second wife, (D)one’s just (A)barely getting by but
(Bm)These people (G)raised me and I .. I .. I, (D)can’t (A)wait to go home

And (D)I’m on my (G)way, (Bm)I still (A)remember
These (D)old country (G)lanes when (Bm)we did not (A)know the answers
And (D)I miss the (G)way you make (Bm)me feel (A)and it’s real
(D)we watched the (G)sunset (Bm)over the (A)castle on the hill (D)
(D) .. (G) .. (Bm)Over the (A)castle on the hill
(D) .. (G) .. (Bm)Over the (A)castle on the hill
