[Verse 1]

 

D             Bm            A                         G         D

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

D                   Bm                    A

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

  G              D

Growin' like a breeze.

 

[Chorus]

 

         D              A            Bm        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               Bm               A                 G              D

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

D                 Bm                 A

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

  G            D

Teardrop in my eye.

 

[Chorus]

 

         D              A            Bm        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]

 

Bm            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.

    Bm               C            G

And driving down the road I get a feeling

       D                     A                 A7

That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.

 

[Chorus]

 

N.C.     D              A            Bm        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            Bm        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
