| G | * | Em |
| Almost hea | ven, | West Virginia |
| D7 | C | * | G |
| Blue Ridge mountains, | Shenan | doah | river |
| G | * | Em |
| Life is old | there, | older than the trees |
| D7 | C | * | G |
| Younger than the mountains, | blowing | like a | breeze |
| G | D7 |
| Country roads, take me | home |
| Em | C |
To the | place, I be | long |
| * | G | D7 |
| West | Virginia, mountain | momma |
| C | * | G |
Take me | home, | country | roads |
| G | * | Em |
| All my memo | ries, | gather round her |
| D7 | C | * | G |
| Miner's lady, | stranger | to blue | water |
| G | * | Em |
| Dark and dus | ty, | painted on the sky |
| D7 | C | * | G |
| Misty taste of moonshine, | teardrops | in my | eye |
| *Em | D7 | G |
| I hear her | voice in the | morning how she calls me |
| *F | G | D7 |
| The radio | reminds me of my | home far away |
| Em | F | C |
And | driving down | the road I get the | feeling |
| G | D | D7 |
That I | should been home | yesterday, | yesterday |
| D7 | G |
Take me | home, country | roads |
