Castle on the Hill - Ed Sheeran
Intro:
C
Verse:
C F Am G
When I was six years old I broke my leg
C F Am G
And I was running from my brother and his friends
C F Am G
And tasted the sweet perfume of the mountain grass as I rolled down
C F Am G
I was younger then, take me back to when I
Pre-Chorus:
F G C
Found my heart and broke it here
F
Made friends and lost them through the years
F G C F
And I've not seen the roaring fields in so long, I know I've grown
F G
But I can't wait to go home
Chorus:
C F Am G
I'm on my way, driving at ninety
C F Am G
Down those country lanes singing to Tiny Dancer
C F Am G
And I miss the way you make me feel and it's real
C F Am G C
When we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
Verse:
C F Am G
Fifteen years old and smoking hand-rolled cigarettes
C F Am G
Running from the law through the backfields and getting drunk with my friends
C F Am G
Had my first kiss on a Friday night, I don't reckon I did it
C F Am G
Right, I was younger then, take me back to when we found
Pre-Chorus:
F G C
Weekend jobs and when we got paid
F F
We'd buy cheap spirits and drink them straight
G C F
Me and my friends have not thrown up in so long, oh how we've grown
F G
But I can't wait to go home
Chorus:
C F Am G
I'm on my way, driving at ninety
C F Am G
Down those country lanes singing to Tiny Dancer
C F Am G
And I miss the way you make me feel and it's real
C F Am G
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
C F Am G
Over the castle on the hill
C F Am G
Over the castle on the hill
Interlude:
Am F C G
Bridge:
Am F C G
One friend left to sell clothes and, one works down by the coast
Am F C G
One had two kids but lives alone, one's brother overdosed
Am F C G
One's already on his second wife, one's just barely getting by but
Am F C G
These people raised me and I-I-I, can't wait to go home
Chorus:
C F Am G
And I'm on my way, I still remember
C F Am G
These old country lanes when we did not know the answers
C F Am G
And I miss the way you make me feel and it's real
C F Am G
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
C F Am G
Over the castle on the hill
C F Am G
Over the castle on the hill
