[INTRO]
G

G                Em                D                      
  Almost Heaven,    West Virginia,    Blue Ridge Mountains, 
C            G
  Shenandoah River.
G                    Em                       
  Life is old there, older than the trees, 
D                             C              G
  younger than the mountains, blowin like a breeze.

        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                 Em                   
  All my memories    gather round her, 
D                 C              G
  miner's lady, stranger to blue water.
G                 Em
  Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, 
D                           C              G
  misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye.
  
        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.

Em           D7/F#        G
  I hear her voice in the morning hours she calls me
    C       G              D
the radio reminds me of my home far away.
     Em              F             C             
And driving down the road I get a feeling
       G
that I should have been home 
      D          D7
yesterday, yesterday.

        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.
