(Back to Songs)

 

[Intro]*

A
[Verse 1]
A                        F#m
Almost heaven, West Virginia,
E                                   D                   A
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.
                           F#m
Life is old there, older than the trees,
E                                             D                   A
Younger than the mountains, growin' like a breeze. 

[Chorus 1]
A                                    E
Country roads, take me home,
           F#m        D
To the place I belong: 
  A                                   E
West Virginia, mountain momma, 
               D                     A
Take me home, country roads.

[Verse 2]
A                          F#m
All my mem'ries, gather 'round her, 
E                   D                       A
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water.
                          F#m
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, 
E                                        D                      A
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye. 

[Chorus 2]
A                                    E
Country roads, take me home,
           F#m        D
To the place I belong: 
A                                     E
West Virginia, mountain momma, 
               D                     A
Take me home, country roads.

[Bridge]
F#m          E              
I hear her voice, 
          A
in the mornin' hours she calls me, 
        D          A                       E
The radio reminds me of my home far away.
        F#m                  G
And drivin' down the road,
            D              
I get a feelin' that I 
A                                     E
should have been home yesterday,
          E7
yesterday.

[Chorus 3]
              A                      E
Country roads, take me home,
           F#m         D
To the place I belong: 
          A                           E
West Virginia, mountain momma, 
              D                      A
take me home, country roads.

[Chorus 4]
              A                      E
Country roads, take me home,
           F#m         D
To the place I belong: 
          A                           E
West Virginia, mountain momma, 
              D                      A
take me home, country roads.

[Outro]
               E                      A
Take me home, country roads.
              E                                A
Take me home, down country roads.
