[Verse 1]
      
When I was six

 years old I b

roke my leg
          
I was running 


from my brothe

r and his frie

nds
      
And tasted the

 sweet perfume

 of the mounta

in grass I rol

led down
     
I was younger 

then, take me 

back to when I


[Pre-Chorus]
 
Found my heart

 and broke it 

here
  
Made friends a

nd lost them t

hrough the yea

rs
        
And I've not s

een the roarin

g fields in so

 long, I know 

I've grown
         
But I can't wa

it to go home


[Chorus]
  
I'm on my way
      
Driving at 90 

down those cou

ntry lanes
       
Singing to "Ti

ny Dancer"
   
And I miss the

 way you make 

me feel, and i

t's real
       
We watched the

 sunset over t

he castle on t

he hill


[Verse 2]
     
Fifteen years 

old and smokin

g hand-rolled 

cigarettes
        
Running from t

he law through

 the backfield

s and getting 

drunk with my 

friends
         
Had my first k

iss on a Frida

y night, I don

't reckon that

 I did it righ

t
        
But I was youn

ger then, take

 me back to wh

en


[Pre-Chorus]
   
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
      
But I can't wa

it to go home


[Chorus]
       
I'm on my way
       
Driving at 90 

down those cou

ntry lanes
          
Singing to "Ti

ny Dancer"
           
And I miss the

 way you make 

me feel, and i

t's real
           
We watched the

 sunset over t

he castle on t

he hill
       
Over the castl

e on the hill
      
Over the castl

e on the hill


[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]
      
And I'm on my 

way, I still r

emember
       
These old coun

try lanes
       
When we did no

t know the ans

wers
       
And I miss the

 way you make 

me feel, it's 

real
          
We watched the

 sunset over t

he castle on t

he hill

Over the castle on the hill

Over the castle on the hill
