Matt Andersen - Wagon Wheel http://www.stubbyfingers.ca/ If you never seen this guy play your missing out. You can see him play this song at It's the best version of this song I've ever heard. Capo on 2 Intro: G D Em C G D C G D Headed down south to the land of the pines Em C And I'm thumbin' my way into North Caroline G D C Starin' up the road and pray to God I see headlights G D I made it down the coast in seventeen hours Em C Pickin' me a bouquet of dogwood flowers G D C And I'm a hopin' for Raleigh So I can see my baby tonight [Chorus] G D So rock me mama like a wagon wheel Em C Rock me mama anyway you feel G C Hey mama rock me G D Rock me mama like the wind and the rain Em C Rock me mama like a south-bound train G C Hey mama rock me G D Running from the cold up in New England. Em C I was born to be a fiddler in an old time string band. G D C My baby plays a guitar,I pick a banjo now G D Oh north country winters started getting me down, Em C I lost my money playing poker so I had to up and leave. G D C But I ain't turning back to living that old life no more. [Chorus] G D I was Walkin' though the south out of Roanoke, Em C I caught a trucker out of Philly had a nice long toke. G D But he’s heading west from the Cumberland gap, C Johnson City, Tennessee. G D Now I gotta get a move on pray the sun, Em C I hear my baby calling my name she’s says I’m the only one. G D C And If I die in Raleigh at least I will die free. [Chorus]
