COUNTRY ROADS

John Denver


[G] Almost Heaven, [Em] West Virginia
[D] Blue Ridge Mountains, [C] Shenandoah [G] River.
[G] Life is old there, [Em] older than the trees,
[D] Younger than the mountains, [C] flowin' like a [G] breeze.

Country [G] Roads, take me [D] home,
To the [Em] place, where I [C] belong
West [G] Virginia, mountain [D] momma,
Take me [C] home, country [G] roads.

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

Country [G] Roads, take me [D] home,
To the [Em] place, where I [C] belong
West [G] Virginia, mountain [D] momma,
Take me [C] home, country [G] roads.

[Em] I hear her voice in the [D] morning hours she [G] calls me.
[C] Radio reminds me of my [G] home far [D] away.
[Em] Drivin' down the road I get a [F] feelin'
That I [C] should've been home [D] yesterday, yester-[D7]-day.

Country [G] Roads, take me [D] home,
To the [Em] place, where I [C] belong
West [G] Virginia, mountain [D] momma,
Take me [C] home, country [G] roads.
Take me [C] home, country [G] roads.
Take me [C] home, country [G] roads.
