John Denver

Country Roads

Strophe 1:
Almost heaven, West Virginia,
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.
Life is old there, older than the trees,
younger than the mountains, growin’ like a breeze.

Refrain:
Country Roads, take me home,
to the place, I belong,
West Virginia, mountain mamma,
take me home, Country Roads.

Strophe2:
All my memories, get around her,
miner’s lady stranger to blue water.
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky,
misty taste of moonshines, teardrop in my eye.

Refrain

Bridge:
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 got a feelin’ that I should have been home
Yesterday, yesterday.

Refrain

Take me home, Country Roads
