All my friends there,
FmOlder (133111@1)than those ridge,

C# (x43121@1)           G#Blowin' (xx1114@1)like a breeze

   D#Oh (x43121@3)yesterday, yesterday.

G# (xx1114@1)             FmAll (133111@1)my memories, oh, gathered 'round her,
D# (x43121@3)         C# (x43121@1)            G#My (xx1114@1)old lady, stranger to the water.
G# (xx1114@1)            FmDark (133111@1)and dusty, painted on the sky,
D#Miss (x43121@3)the taste of moonshine,
C# (x43121@1)               G#Tears (xx1114@1)gone from my eyes.

G# (xx1114@1)                  D#Country (x43121@3)roads, take me home,
       Fm (133111@1)      C# (x43121@1)To the place I belong:
       G# (xx1114@1)            D#West (x43121@3)Jamaica, my my my mama,
                        C# (x43121@1)          G#Oh (xx1114@1)won't you take me go home, country roads.
