Country Roads           John Denver
          [** = extra measure with bass walk up]

|G       |        |Em          |         |
   Almost heaven,      West Virginia, 
|D          |           |C          |G       |       |
  Blue Ridge Mountains,  Shenandoah  River.   **
|G       |           |Em            |         |
  Life is old there,  older than the trees,  
|D               |           |C              |G 
 Younger than the mountains,  blowing like a  breeze.  

[Chorus]-----------------------------------------------
                  G                   D 
         Country  roads,     take me  home  
                 Em              C 
         To the  place       I belong,  
                 G                     D 
         West Virginia,      mountain  mama,  
                  C                   G 
         Take me  home,      country  roads.  
-------------------------------------------------------
G                   Em  
  All my mem'ries      gather 'round her,  
D                 C                 G 
   Miner's lady,  stranger to blue  water.  **
G                  Em  
  Dark and dusty,  painted on the sky,  
D                          C                G 
Misty taste of moonshine,  tear-drop in my  eye.  


[Repeat Chorus]


Em         D              G 
I hear her voice, in the  morning hours she calls me,  
     C       G               D 
The  radio reminds me of my  home far away.  
     Em                D               C 
And  driving down the  road I get the  feeling  
                        G                     
                 That I should have been home 
D                         D7 
yesterday,          yesterday.  


[Repeat Chorus 2x]

End: 2x    
                  D      C          G 
         Take me  home,    country  roads.
