**Lyrics:**

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

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

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

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