Ed Sheeran - Castle on the Hill: guitar chords

D                    G
When I was six years old
              Bm7 A D
I broke my leg,
                G
I was running from my brother
    Bm7        A D
And his friends.
             G
Tasted the sweet perfume
        Bm7
Of the mountain grass
      A         D
As I rolled down.
                G  Bm7
I was younger then.
                  A
Take me back to when

   A D
   I
    G        A                  D
   Found my heart and broke it here,
   Made friends
        G
   And lost them through the years,
                 A
   And I’ve not seen
                D
   The roaring fields in so long,
   G
   I know I’ve grown,
  A
   I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus:
     D          G
     I’m on my way,
     Bm7         A
     Driving at ninety down
     D              G
     Those country lanes,
     Bm7          A
     Singing to “Tiny Dancer”
         D           G
     And I miss the way
             Bm7     A
     You make me feel, and it’s real,
     D               G
     We watched the sunset
     Bm7       A             D
     Over the castle on the hill.

Fifteen years old and smoking
Hand-rolled cigarettes,
Running from the law through the backfields
And getting drunk with my friends.
Had my first kiss on a Friday night,
I don’t reckon that I did it right.
I was younger then.
Take me back to when

   We found
   Weekend jobs, when we got paid
   We’d buy cheap spirits
   And drink them straight.
   Me and my friends
   Have not thrown up in so long,
   Oh, how we’ve grown,
   I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus

         G
     Oooh,
     Bm7       A             D
     Over the castle on the hill,
        G
     Oooh,
     Bm7       A             D
     Over the castle on the hill.

 Bm7           G
   One friend left to sell clothes,
 D            A
   One works down by the coast,
 Bm7            G
   One had two kids but lives alone,
 D         A
   One’s brother overdosed,
 Bm7        G
   One’s already on his second wife,
 D             A
   One’s just barely getting by
      Bm7            G
   But these people raised me
       D        A
   And I can’t wait to go home.

Chorus

     Oooh,
     Over the castle on the hill,
     Oooh,
     Over the castle on the hill.
