Intro:

Ab  Ab7 (x3), Ab (n.C)

Verse 1:

Ab      Fm
 Almost heaven, West Jamaica,
Eb                     C#               Ab
 True Ridge Mountains, shining down the river.
Ab                     Fm
 All my friends there,  holding on those ridge,
Eb                          C#             Ab
 Younger than the mountain, blowin' like a breeze.

Chorus 1:

        Ab            Eb           C#
Country roads take me home, to the place I belong.
     Ab              Eb                  C#            Ab
West Jamaica, my ol' Mama ma ma, take me home, country roads.

Verse 2:

Ab           Eb            Ab               Fm
 I heard her voice; in the mornin' hour she calls me.
       C#         Ab            Eb
Said; "son you re-mind me of my home far away".
Ab                Eb             C#
 Drivin' down the road, I feel a sickness, I sure did,
       Eb
Oh yes-terday, yesterday.

Verse 3:

Ab      Fm
 All my memories all gather 'round her,
Eb          C#              Ab
 Mama Lady, stranger to the water.
Ab              Fm
 Dark and dusky painted on the sky,
Eb                         C#                 Ab
 Misty taste of moonshine, tears gone from my eye.

Chorus 2:

        Ab            Eb           C#
Country roads take me home, to the place I belong.
     Ab              Eb
West Jamaica, my ol' Mama ma ma,
                    C#            Ab
Won't you let me go home, country roads?

     Ab              Eb                  C#            Ab
West Jamaica, my ol' Mama ma ma, take me home, country roads.

Country roads take me home, to the place I belong.

West Jamaica, my ol' Mama ma ma, take me home, country roads.
