[Verse 1]

 

D#             Cm            A#                         G#         D#

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

D#                   Cm                    A#

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

  G#              D#

Growin' like a breeze.

 

[Chorus]

 

         D#              A#            Cm        G#

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

         D#               A#             G#             D#

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

 

[Verse 2]

 

D#               Cm               A#                 G#              D#

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

D#                 Cm                 A#

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

  G#            D#

Teardrop in my eye.

 

[Chorus]

 

         D#              A#            Cm        G#

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

         D#               A#             G#             D#

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

 

[Bridge]

 

Cm            A#            D#

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

    G#        D#             A#

The radio reminds me of my home far away.

    Cm               C#            G#

And driving down the road I get a feeling

       D#                     A#                 A#7

That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.

 

[Chorus]

 

N.C.     D#              A#            Cm        G#

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

         D#               A#             G#             D#

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

         D#              A#            Cm        G#

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

         D#               A#             G#             D#

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

         A#                  D#              A#                  D#

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