Verse

6 6 -6 6 -6 6 -6 7

Almost heaven, West Virginia

-8 -8 8 -8 -6 -6 -6 6 -6 7

Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River

6 6 -6 6 -6 7 7 8 8

Life is old there, older than the trees

-8 -8 -8 -8 8 -8 -6 7 7 -8 7

Younger than the mountains, blowing like a breeze

Chorus

7 -8 8 8 7 -8 8 -8 7 8 9 -10 Country roads, take me home to the place I belong

-10 8 9 8 8 7 -8 8 West Virginia, mountain mamma

Take me home, country roads

Repeat verse.

Bridge

7 7 7 -7 7 -8 8 8 8 8 8 -8 (8/) 7

I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me 7 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 8 -8 7 -8 8 8 -8

The radio reminds me of my home far away

-8 8 8 8 8 -8 -8 -8 -8 7 7 7 And driving down the road I get a feeling that

7 7 7 7 7 -8 8 -8 -8 8 -9

I should have been home yesterday, yesterday
