Take Me Home Country Roads – The Petersens

[Intro]
D    D    D    D
 
[Verse 1]
D              Bm
 Almost heaven, West Virginia
A                      G          D
 Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
D                   Bm
 Life is old there, older than the trees
A                          G              D
Younger than the mountains growin' like a breeze
 
[Chorus]
        D              A
Country Roads, take me home
       Bm        G
To the place I belong
        D               A
West Virginia, mountain momma
        G             D
Take me home, Country Roads
 
[Verse 2]
D               Bm
 All my memories gather 'round her
A              G                D
 Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
D                Bm
 Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
 A              G          D
 Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye
 
[Chorus]
        D              A
Country Roads, take me home
       Bm       G
To the place I belong
        D               A
West Virginia, mountain momma
        G             D
Take me home, Country Roads
 
[Bridge]
Bm          A             D
 I hear her voice, in the mornin' hours she calls me
     G       D              A
 The radio reminds me of my home far away
 Bm                C            G
 Drivin' down that road I get a feelin'
        D                     A                A7
 that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday
 
[Chorus]
        E              B
Country Roads, take me home
       C#m       A
To the place I belong
        E               B
West Virginia, mountain momma
        A             E
Take me home, Country Roads
 
[Solo]
E  B  C#m   A   E   B   A   E
 
[Outro]
        E               B
West Virginia, mountain momma
        A             E
Take me home, Country Roads
