**Chords:**
G  D  Em  C

G                       D
Headed down south to the land of the pines
Em                          C
I'm thumbing my way into North Caroline
G                             D
Staring up the road and pray to God I see headlights
G                            D
I made it down the coast in seventeen hours
Em                        C
Picking me a bouquet of dogwood flowers
G                     D
And I'm hoping for Raleigh, I can see my baby tonight

        G     D
So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
        Em         C
Rock me mama any way you feel
        G      D
Hey, mama rock me
        G     D
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
        Em         C
Rock me mama like a southbound train
        G      D
Hey, mama rock me

G                        D
Running from the cold up in New England
Em                           C
I was born to be a fiddler in an old-time string band
G                       D
My baby plays the guitar, I pick a banjo now
G                         D
Oh, the North country winters keep a-getting me down
Em                          C
Lost my money playing poker, so I had to leave town
G                     D
But I ain't a-turning back to living that old life no more

        G     D
So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
        Em         C
Rock me mama any way you feel
        G      D
Hey, mama rock me
        G     D
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
        Em         C
Rock me mama like a southbound train
        G      D
Hey, mama rock me
