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