Life is old there, older than the trees, younger than the mountains, growin'

like a breeze.

West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.
[Verse 2]

Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye.

Country Roads, take me home, to the place I belong
G D C G
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.

Em D/F# G
I hear her voice, in the mornin' hour she calls me.

The radio reminds me of my home far away.

And drivin' down the road I get a feelin' that I should have been home

yesterday, yesterday.

Country Roads, take me home, to the place I belong

West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.
