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 |
