Verse 1-
A               F#
Almost heaven, West Virginia
Em                   D
Blue Ridge Mountains,Shenandoah River
A                 F#
Life is old there,older than the trees
Em                         D
Younger than the mountains,blowing like a breeze

(Chorus)
        A              Em
Country roads, take me home
       F#               D
To the place where I belong
        A               Em
West Virginia, mountain momma
        D             A
Take me home, country roads

(Verse)
A               F#
All my memories gathered 'round her
Em           D
Miner's lady stranger to blue water
A              F#
Dark and dusty painted on the sky
Em                       D
Misty taste of moonshine,teardrop in my eye

(Chorus)
        A              Em
Country roads, take me home
       F#               D
To the place where I belong
        A               Em
West Virginia, mountain momma
        D             A
Take me home, country roads

(Bridge)(Kinda hard to explain in chords,so i tabbed it aswel)
  F#               Em               A

F#         Em           A
I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me
D      A               Em
Radio reminds me of my home far away
F#             G            D
Driving on the road I get a feeling that I
A                     Em
should have been home yesterday, yesterday

(Chorus)
        A              Em
Country roads, take me home
       F#               D
To the place where I belong
        A               Em
West Virginia, mountain momma
        D             A
Take me home, country roads

Em           A
Take me home,country roads
Em           A
Take me home,yeah country roads
Em      D
Take me home
A
Country roads, yeah

Yeay! Yeay! Yeay! Yeay! Whoo!
