Country Roads

[Intro] 
G  G/D  x4 
 
[Verse 1] 
G              Em             D                       C          G 
  Almost Heaven, West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River. 
G                    Em                    D                           C 
  Life is old there, older than the trees, younger than the mountains, growin' 
         G 
like a breeze. 
 
[Chorus] 
        G              D            Em        C 
Country Roads, take me home, to the place I belong 
        G               D             C             G 
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads. 
 
[Verse 2] 
G               Em                 D               C                G 
 All my memories  gather 'round her, miner's lady, stranger to blue water. 
G                 Em                  D                         C              G 
  Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye. 
 
[Chorus] 
        G              D            Em        C 
Country Roads, take me home, to the place I belong 
        G               D             C             G 
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads. 
 
[Bridge] 
Em          D/F#          G 
 I hear her voice, in the mornin' hour she calls me. 
    C       G              D 
The radio reminds me of my home far away. 
    Em               F            C              G 
And drivin' down the road I get a feelin' that I should have been home 
D                D7 
yesterday, yesterday. 
 
[Chorus] 
        G              D            Em        C 
Country Roads, take me home, to the place I belong 
        G               D             C             G 
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads. 
 
        G              D            Em        C 
Country Roads, take me home, to the place I belong 
        G               D             C             G 
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads. 
 
[Outro] 
        D                    G 
Take me home, (down) country roads. 
        D                    G 
Take me home, (down) country roads.
