Intro: D  

Verse  

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

Pre-Chorus  

G          A                  D  
Found my heart and broke it here  
                     G  
Made my 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     D/F# G   Bm          A  
I'm on my way, driving at ninety  
     D        D/F#  G    Bm         A  
Down those country lanes singing to Tiny Dancer  
    D   D/F#  G            Bm       A  
And I miss the way you made me feel, it's real  
D          D/F# G     Bm        A  
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
  


Verse  

D        D/F# G               Bm                    A  
Fifteen years old and smoking hand-rolled cigarettes  
D           D/F#  G                           Bm                      A  
Running from the law through the backfields and getting drunk with my friends  
D       D/F#  G                Bm               A  
Had my first kiss on a Friday night, I don't reckon that I did it right  
D        D/F#  G     Bm                 A  
I was younger then,  take me back to when  


Pre-Chorus  

         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  


D     D/F# G   Bm          A  
I'm on my way, driving at ninety  
     D        D/F#  G    Bm         A  
Down those country lanes singing to Tiny Dancer  
    D   D/F#  G            Bm       A  
And I miss the way you made me feel, it's real  
D          D/F# G     Bm        A  
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill  
D D/F# G  Bm        A  
          Over the castle on the hill  
D D/F# G  Bm        A  
          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    D/F# G   Bm         A  
And I'm on my way, I still remember  
      D       D/F# G         Bm          A  
These old country lanes when we did not know the answers  
    D   D/F#  G            Bm       A  
And I miss the way you made me feel, it's real  
D          D/F# G     Bm        A  
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill  
D D/F# G  Bm        A  
          Over the castle on the hill  
D D/F# G  Bm        A  
          Over the castle on the hill
