Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

The Kings been in his bedroom for weeks

In exile from the world, he never speaks



The Queen is in the counting house, her fingers in the till

Something is happening to the castle on the hill

Verse 2

The jesters telling jokes to everyone

Sayin "now he's gone, well ain't it fun"



There's whispers in the courtroom, is he crazy is he ill?

Nobody has an answer but they keep on asking still

Chorus

And a friend of mine, one of the few

Has locked himself away like Howard Hughes

They're trying to replace him but they know they never will

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

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

ones self. Enjoy..
