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