[Verse 1]
          
When I was six

   
 years old
              
I broke my leg

       


           
And I was runn

       
ing from my br

             
other and his 

       
friends
    
And tasted the

             
 sweet perfume

        
 of the mounta

          
in grass I rol

         
led down
     
I was younger 

 
then
       
Take me back t

 
o when

          
I found my hea

           
rt and broke i

   
t here
              
Made my friend

  
s and lost the

m through the 

years
          
And I’ve not s

            
een the roarin

             
g fields in so


 long

I know I’ve gr

own
        
I can’t wait t

o go home

[Chorus]
      
I’m   on   my 

 
  way
    
Driving at nin

           
ety down those

  
 old
    
Country   lake
   
Singing to Tin


y Dancer
       
And I miss the

/       
 way you made 

     
me feel
             
It’s real, we 

    
watched the su

nset
  
Over the castl

              
e on the hill

[Verse 2]
      
Fifteen years 

 
old
          
And smoking ha

           
nd-rolled ciga

        
rettes
        
Running from t

          
he lot to the 

 
back fields
       
And getting dr

             
unk with my fr


iends
    
Had my first k

             
iss on a Frida

 
y night
        
I don’t reckon

              
 that I did it

   
 right
        
But I was youn

/  
ger then
       
Take me back t

 
o when

             
We found weeke

        
nd jobs, when 

        
we got paid
         
We’d buy cheap

   
 spirits and d

rink them stra

ight
          
Me and my frie

            
nds have not t

             
hrown up in so

 
 long

Oh, how we’ve 

grown
        
I can’t wait t

o go home

[Chorus]
      
I’m   on   my 

 
  way
    
Driving at nin

           
ety down those

  
 old
    
Country   lake
   
Singing to Tin


y Dancer
        
And I miss the

       
  way  you mad

     
e me feel
             
It’s real, we 

    
watched the su

nset
  
Over the castl

                    
e on the hill
  
Over the castl

                    
e on the hill
  
Over the castl

[Interlude]
      

[Bridge]
     
One friend lef

t to sell clot

hes
  
One works down


 by the coast
      
One had two ki

              
ds but lives a

      
lone
        
One’s brother 

            
overdosed
             
One’s already 

              
on his second 

      
wife
          
One’s just bar


ely getting by
       
But these peop

     
le raised me
      
And I can’t wa


it to go home

[Chorus]
      
I’m   on   my 

 
  way
   
I still rememb

          
er these old  

  
country  lanes
       
When we did no

 
t know the ans

wers
       
And I miss the

/       
 way you made

It’s real, we 

    
watched the su

Over the castl

Over the castl

                    
e on the hill
  
Over the castl

              
e on the hill
