[Intro]
{G G/D} x4 [Verse 1] G Em D Almost Heaven, West Virginia,
Blue Ridge Mountains,
C G
Shenandoah River. G Life is old there,
Em
older than the trees,
D C
younger than the mountains, growin' G like a breeze. [Chorus]
G D Country Roads, take me home,
Em C
to the place I belong G D West Virginia, mountain mama,
C
take me home,
G
country roads. [Verse]
G Em D All my memories gather 'round her,
miner's lady,
C G
stranger to blue water. G Em Dark and dusty, painted on the sky,
D
misty taste of moonshine,
C G
teardrop in my eye. [Chorus]
G D Country Roads, take me home,
Em C
to the place I belong G D West Virginia, mountain mama,
C G
take me home, country roads. [Bridge]
Em D/F# G I hear her voice, in the mornin'
hour she calls me. C G The radio reminds me of
D
my home far away. Em F And drivin' down the road
C
I get a feelin' that
G
I should have been home D D7 yesterday, yesterday. [Chorus]
G D Country Roads, take me home,
Em C
to the place I belong G D West Virginia, mountain mama,
C G
take me home, country roads. G D Country Roads, take me home,
Em C
to the place I belong G D West Virginia, mountain mama,
C G
take me home, country roads. [Outro]
D Take me home,
G
(down) country roads. D Take me home, (down)
G
country roads.
