John Denver - Take Me Home, Country Roads

🎸 Capo di fret 2

(Intro) G…

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
younger than the mountains
C G
blowin’ 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 memories.. gather ‘round her..
D C G
miner’s lady, stranger to blue water..
G Em
Dark and dusty.. painted on the sky..
D
misty taste of moonshine
C G
teardrop in my eye..

(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..

Em D/F#
I hear her voice
G
in the mornin’ hour she calls me
C G
the radio reminds me
D
of my home far away..
Em F
and drivin’ down the road
C
I get a feelin’
G
that I should have been home
D Bm
yesterday, yesterday..

(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 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..

D
take me home..
G
(down) country roads..
D
take me home..
G
(down) country roads..
