[Verse 1]
B G#m F# E B
Almost Heaven; West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.
B G#m F#
Life is old there, older than the trees, younger than the mountains,
E B
Growin' like a breeze.
[Chorus]
B F# G#m E
Country Roads, take me home, to the place, I belong,
B F# E B
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.
[Verse 2]
B G#m F# E B
All my memories gather round her, miner's lady, stranger to blue water.
B G#m F#
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, misty taste of moonshine,
E B
Teardrop in my eye.
[Chorus]
B F# G#m E
Country Roads, take me home, to the place, I belong,
B F# E B
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.
[Bridge]
G#m F# B
I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me,
E B F#
The radio reminds me of my home far away.
G#m A E
And driving down the road I get a feeling
B F# F#7
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.
[Chorus]
N.C. B F# G#m E
Country Roads, take me home, to the place, I belong,
B F# E B
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.
B F# G#m E
Country Roads, take me home, to the place, I belong,
B F# E B
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.
F# B F# B
Take me home, down country roads; take me home, down country roads
