(Capo 2nd fret)
(Intro) [G]
(Verse)
[G]Almost heaven, [Em]West Virginia,
[D]Blue Ridge Mountains, [C]Shenandoah [G]River.
Life is old there, [Em]older than the trees,
[D]Younger than the mountains, [C]growin' like a [G]breeze.
(Chorus)
[G]Country roads, take me [D7]home,
To the [Em]place I [C]belong:
West [G]Virginia, mountain [D7]momma,
Take me [Em]home, country [C]roads.
(Verse)
[G]All my mem'ries, [Em]gather 'round her,
[D]Miner's lady, [C]stranger to blue [G]water.
Dark and dusty, [Em]painted on the sky,
[D]Misty taste of moonshine, [C]teardrop in my [G]eye.
(Chorus)
[G]Country roads, take me [D7]home,
To the [Em]place I [C]belong:
West [G]Virginia, mountain [D]momma,
Take me [C]home, country [G]roads.
(Bridge)
[Em]I hear her [D/F#]voice, in the [G]mornin' hours she calls me,
The [C]radio [G]reminds me of my [D]home far away.
And [Em]drivin' down the [F]road,
I get a [C]feelin' that I [G]should have been home [D]yesterday,
[D]yesterday.
(Chorus)
Country [G]roads, take me [D7]home,
To the [Em]place I [C]belong:
West [G]Virginia, mountain [D]momma,
take me [C]home, country [G]roads.
Country [G]roads, take me [D7]home,
To the [Em]place I [C]belong:
West [G]Virginia, mountain [D]momma,
take me [C]home, country [G]roads.
(Outro)
Take me [C]home, country [G]roads.
Take me [C]home, down country [G]roads.
