John Denver: Country Roads Take Me Home




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


Country roads, take me home


To the place I belong


West Virginia,


mountain momma


Take me home,


country roads



All my memories gathered round her


Miners lady, stranger to blue water


Dark and dusty, painted on the sky


Misty taste of moonshine


Teardrops in my eye



Country roads, take me home


To the place I belong

West Virginia,

mountain momma

Take me home, country roads

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 momma

Take me home, country roads

Country roads, take me home

To the place I belong

West Virginia, mountain momma

Take me home, country roads

Take me home, now country roads

Take me home, now country roads

Words and music by bill danoff, taffy nivert and john denver
