[Verse 1]
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA
When I was six years old I broke my leg
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA
I was running from my brother and his friends
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA
And tasted the sweet perfume of the mountain grass I rolled down
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA
I was younger then, take me back to when I


[Pre-chorus]
G chordG A chordA
Found my heart and broke it here
D chordD G chordG
Made friends and lost them through the years
G chordG A chordA D chordD G chordG
And I've not seen the roaring fields in so long, I know I've grown
G chordG A chordA
But I can't wait to go home


[Chorus]
D chordD G chordG
I'm on my way
Bm chordBm A chordA
Driving at 90 down
D chordD G chordG
those country lanes
Bm chordBm A chordA
Singing to "Tiny Dancer"
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA
And I miss the way you make me feel, and it's real
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA D chordD
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill


[Verse 2]
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA
Fifteen years old and smoking hand-rolled cigarettes
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA
Running from the law through the backfields and getting drunk with my friends
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA D chordD
Had my first kiss on a Friday night, I don't reckon that I did it right
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA
But I was younger then, take me back to when


[Pre-chorus]
G chordG A chordA D chordD
We found weekend jobs, when we got paid
G chordG
We'd buy cheap spirits and drink them straight
G chordG A chordA D chordD G chordG
Me and my friends have not thrown up in so long, oh how we've grown
G chordG A chordA
But I can't wait to go home


[Chorus]
D chordD G chordG
I'm on my way
Bm chordBm A chordA
Driving at 90 down
D chordD G chordG
those country lanes
Bm chordBm A chordA
Singing to "Tiny Dancer"
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA
And I miss the way you make me feel, and it's real
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA D chordD
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA D chordD
Over the castle on the hill
G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA
Over the castle on the hill


[Interlude]
Bm chordBm G chordG D chordD A chordA


[Bridge]
Bm chordBm G chordG
One friend left to sell clothes
D chordD A chordA
One works down by the coast
Bm chordBm G chordG
One had two kids but lives alone
D chordD A chordA
One's brother overdosed
Bm chordBm G chordG
One's already on his second wife
D chordD A chordA
One's just barely getting by
Bm chordBm G chordG
But these people raised me
D chordD A chordA
And I can't wait to go home


[Chorus]
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA
And I'm on my way, I still remember
D chordD G chordG
Those old country lanes
Bm chordBm A chordA
When we did not know the answers
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA
And I miss the way you make me feel, it's real
D chordD G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA D chordD
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA D chordD
Over the castle on the hill
G chordG Bm chordBm A chordA D chordD
Over the castle on the hill

About this song: Castle On The Hill

The Benny Blanco-produced “Castle On The Hill,” described on iTunes as a “life-affirming pop rocket,” pays homage to Ed Sheeran’s upbringing in the English countryside town of Framlingham, Suffolk. The song was released in tandem with “Shape Of You.” The two songs are the first releases from his upcoming third album, ÷ (Divide), following in the mathematical footsteps of his + (Plus) and x (Multiply) albums.Ed said this about the song: This is a love song for Suffolk, because I don’t think anyone has ever done that.
