{t:Take Me Home, Country Roads}
{st:John Denver (1971)}
{capo: 2}
{c:capo: 2nd fret}

{c:verse 1}
[G]Almost heaven, [Em]West Virginia,
[D]Blue Ridge Mountains, [C]Shenandoah [G]River.
Life is old there, [Em]older than the trees,
[D]Younger than the mountains, [C]growin' like a [G]breeze. 

{soc}
Country [G]roads, take me [D]home,
To the [Em]place I be-[C]long: 
West Vir-[G]ginia, mountain [D]mama, 
Take me [C]home, country [G]roads.
{eoc}

{c:verse 2}
[G]All my mem'ries, [Em]gather 'round her, 
[D]Miner's lady, [C]stranger to blue [G]water.
Dark and dusty, [Em]painted on the sky, 
[D]Misty taste of moonshine, [C]teardrop in my [G]eye. 

{soc}
Country [G]roads, take me [D]home,
To the [Em]place I be-[C]long: 
West Vir-[G]ginia, mountain [D]mama, 
Take me [C]home, country [G]roads.
{eoc}

{c:verse 3}
[Em]I hear her [D]voice, in the [G]mornin' hours she calls me, 
The [C]radio re-[G]minds me of my [D]home far away.
And [Em]drivin' down the [F]road,
I get a [C]feelin' that I [G]should have been home [D]yesterday,
yester-[D7]day.

{soc}
Country [G]roads, take me [D]home,
To the [Em]place I be-[C]long: 
West Vir-[G]ginia, mountain [D]mama, 
Take me [C]home, country [G]roads.
{eoc}

{soc}
Country [G]roads, take me [D]home,
To the [Em]place I be-[C]long: 
West Vir-[G]ginia, mountain [D]mama, 
Take me [C]home, country [G]roads.
Take me [C]home, country [G]roads.
Take me [C]home, down country [G]↓roads.
{eoc}
