[Verse 1]

 

C#             A#m            G#                         F#         C#

 Almost Heaven; West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.

C#                   A#m                    G#

 Life is old there, older than the trees, younger than the mountains,

  F#              C#

Growin' like a breeze.

 

[Chorus]

 

         C#              G#            A#m        F#

Country Roads, take me home, to the place, I belong,

         C#               G#             F#             C#

West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.

 

[Verse 2]

 

C#               A#m               G#                 F#              C#

 All my memories gather round her, miner's lady, stranger to blue water.

C#                 A#m                 G#

 Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, misty taste of moonshine,

  F#            C#

Teardrop in my eye.

 

[Chorus]

 

         C#              G#            A#m        F#

Country Roads, take me home, to the place, I belong,

         C#               G#             F#             C#

West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.

 

[Bridge]

 

A#m            G#            C#

   I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me,

    F#        C#             G#

The radio reminds me of my home far away.

    A#m               B            F#

And driving down the road I get a feeling

       C#                     G#                 G#7

That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.

 

[Chorus]

 

N.C.     C#              G#            A#m        F#

Country Roads, take me home, to the place, I belong,

         C#               G#             F#             C#

West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.

         C#              G#            A#m        F#

Country Roads, take me home, to the place, I belong,

         C#               G#             F#             C#

West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.

         G#                  C#              G#                  C#

Take me home, down country roads; take me home, down country roads
