[G] [Em] [D] [A]

[G] Almost heaven, [Em] West Virginia,  
[D] Blue Ridge Mountains, [A] Shenandoah River.  
[G] Life is old there, [Em] older than the trees,  
[D] Younger than the mountains, [A] blowing like a breeze.  

[G] Country roads, [Em] take me home  
[D] To the place I [A] belong.  
[G] West Virginia, [Em] mountain mama,  
[D] Take me home, [A] country roads.  

[G] All my memories [Em] gather 'round her,  
[D] Miner’s lady, [A] stranger to blue water.  
[G] Dark and dusty, [Em] painted on the sky,  
[D] Misty taste of [A] moonshine, teardrop in my eye.  

[G] Country roads, [Em] take me home  
[D] To the place I [A] belong.  
[G] West Virginia, [Em] mountain mama,  
[D] Take me home, [A] country roads.  

[G] I hear her voice [Em] in the morning hour she calls me,  
[D] The radio reminds me of my home far away.  
[G] And driving down the road, [Em] I get a feeling  
[D] That I should have been [A] home yesterday, yesterday.  

[G] Country roads, [Em] take me home  
[D] To the place I [A] belong.  
[G] West Virginia, [Em] mountain mama,  
[D] Take me home, [A] country roads.

[D] To the place I [A] belong.  
[G] West Virginia, [Em] mountain mama,  
[D] Take me home, [A] country roads.  

[G] Take me home, [Em] country roads.  
[D] Take me home, [A] country roads.
