Verse 1:
G When I was six years C old I broke my Em leg D
G I was running C from my brother and Em his D friends
G And tasted the C sweet perfume of the Em mountain grass as I D rolled down
G I was younger C then, Em Take me back to D when
Pre-chorus:
I C found my D heart and broke it G here
Made friends and C lost them through the C years
And I’ve not D seen the roaring G fields in so long,
C I know I’ve grown, C And I can’t D wait to go home
Chorus:
G I’m on my C way
Em Driving at D 90 down G those country C lanes
Em Singing to D ‘Tiny Dancer’
And G I miss the C way you make Em me feel, D and it’s real
G We watched the C sunset Em over the D castle on the hill
G C Em D
Verse 2:
G Fifteen years C old and smoking Em hand-rolled D cigarettes
G Running from the C law in the backfields Em and getting drunk with D my friends
G Had my first C kiss on a Friday Em night, I don’t D reckon that I did it G right
But I was younger C then, Em Take me back to D when
Pre-chorus:
We C found weekend D jobs, when we got G paid
We’d buy cheap C spirits and drink them C straight
Me and my D friends have not thrown G up in so long, C oh how we’ve C grown
But I can’t D wait to go home
Chorus:
G I’m on my C way,
Em Driving at D 90 down G those country C lanes
Em Singing to D ‘Tiny Dancer’
And G I miss the C way you make Em me D feel,and it’s real
G We watched the C sunset Em over the D castle on the hill
Em C G D
Bridge:
Em One friend C left to sell clothes,
G One works D down by the coast,
Em One had two C kids but lives alone,
G One’s D brother overdosed,
Em One’s C already on his second wife
G One’s just D barely getting by
But Em these people C raised me
And I G can’t D wait to go home
Chorus:
G I’m on my C way,
Em I still D remember these G old country C lanes,
When Em we did not D know the answers,
And G I miss the C way you Em make me D feel, and it’s real,
G We watched the C sunset Em over the D castle on the G hill.
