G             EM            D
ALMOST HEAVEN WEST VIRGINIA BLUE RIDGE MOUNTAINS,
(C        G)      G                 EM
SHENADOAH RIVER.  LIFE IS OLD THERE OLDER THAN THE TREES,
D                           (C           G)
YOUNGER THAN THE MOUNTAINS, GROWING LIKE A BREEZE.

COUNTRY ROADS, TAKE ME HOME TO THE PLACE, I BELONG

ALL MY MEMORIES GATHER ROUND HER, MINER'S LADY,
(C          G)           G              EM
STRANGER TO BLUE WATER.  DARK AND DUSTY PAINTED ON THE SKY
D                        (C           G)
MISTY TASTE OF MOONSHINE TEAR DROP IN MY EYE.

COUNTRY ROADS, TAKE ME HOME TO THE PLACE I BELONG

WEST VIRGINIA MOUNTAIN MOMMA TAKE ME HOME COUNTRY ROADS.

(EM        D)           G
I HEAR HER VOICE IN THE MORNIN' HOURS SHE CALLS ME
(C      G)             D                  (EM
THE RADIO REMINDS ME OF MY HOME FAR AWAY, AND DRIVIN' DOWN
F)             (C             G)
THE ROAD I GET THE FEELIN' THAT I SHOULD HAVE BEEN HOME

YESTERDAY, YESTERDAY.

 VERSE 1: 
A              F#m 
Almost heaven, West Virginia,  
E                     D          A 
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.  
                   F#m 
Life is old there, older than the trees,  
E                           D              A 
Younger than the mountains, growin' like a breeze.  
 
CHORUS:  
A                      E 
Country roads, take me home,  
       F#m       D 
To the place I belong:  
     A                  E 
West Virginia, mountain momma,  
        D             A 
Take me home, country roads.  
 
VERSE 2: 
A                F#m 
All my mem'ries, gather 'round her,  
E             D                A 
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water.  
                F#m 
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky,  
E                         D              A 
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye.  
 
CHORUS:  
A                      E 
Country roads, take me home,  
       F#m       D 
To the place I belong:  
     A                  E 
West Virginia, mountain momma,  
        D             A 
Take me home, country roads.  
 
BRIDGE: 
F#m        E             A 
I hear her voice, in the mornin' hours she calls me,  
    D       A              E 
The radio reminds me of my home far away.  
    F#m              G             D
And drivin' down the road, I get a feelin'  
       A                     E                E7
that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

       F#m       D 
To the place I belong:  
     A                  E 
West Virginia, mountain momma,  
        D             A 
Take me home, country roads.  
 
OUTRO:  
        E             A 
Take me home, country roads.  
        E                  A 
Take me home, down country roads.
