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

Refrain
    G                       D
   Country Roads, take me home
           Em        C
   To the place I belong
           G                 D
   West Virginia, mountain Mamma
            C              G
   Take me home, Country Roads

2. All my memories gather ‘round her
   Miner’s lady, stranger to blue water
   Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
   Misty taste of moonshine, tear drop in my eye.

Refrain

Break
   Em           D           G
   I here her voice in the mornin’ hours she calls me
        C       G              D
   The radio reminds me of my home far away.
    Em               F             C
   Drivin’ down the road I get a feelin’
           G                           D          D7
   That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.

Refrain

Ending
    G       D              G
   Take me home, Country Road
    G       D              G
   Take me home, Country Road.
