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.
