G: 355433
Gm: 355333
A: x02220
A*: 577655
Verse 1 ( Capo 2nd Fret )
D D/A
The Kings been in his bedroom for weeks
D G
In exile from the world, he never speaks
Gm D
The Queen is in the counting house, her fingers in the till
A A*
Something is happening to the castle on the hill
Verse 2
D D/A
The jesters telling jokes to everyone
D G
Sayin "now he's gone, well ain't it fun"
Gm D
There's whispers in the courtroom, is he crazy is he ill?
A A*
Nobody has an answer but they keep on asking still
Chorus
G D
And a friend of mine, one of the few
A G D
Has locked himself away like Howard Hughes
G D
They're trying to replace him but they know they never will
A G A G D
And it ain't the same with out him, in the castle on the hill
I cant remember the exact words for Verse 3 but the guitar part is the same, the break in the middle has a really easy lead part but i can't be bothered to TAB that now so you'll have to listen to the CD and work it out for ones self. Enjoy..
