Intro:

G#G# G#7G#7 (x3), G#G# (n.c)

Verse 1:

G#G#   F minorFm
 Almost heaven, West Jamaica,
D#D#           C#C#        G#G#
 True Ridge Mountains, shining down the river.
G#G#           F minorFm
 All my friends there, holding on those ridge,
D#D#             C#C#       G#G#
 Younger than the mountain, blowin' like a breeze.

Chorus 1:

    G#G#      D#D#      C#C#
Country roads take me home, to the place I belong.
   G#G#       D#D#         C#C#      G#G#
West Jamaica, my ol' Mama ma ma, take me home, country roads.

Verse 2:

G#G#      D#D#      G#G#        F minorFm
 I heard her voice; in the mornin' hour she calls me.
    C#C#     G#G#      D#D#
Said; "son you re-mind me of my home far away".
G#G#        D#D#       C#C#
 Drivin' down the road, I feel a sickness, I sure did,
    D#D#
Oh yes-terday, yesterday.

Verse 3:

G#G#   F minorFm
 All my memories all gather 'round her,
D#D#     C#C#       G#G#
 Mama Lady, stranger to the water.
G#G#       F minorFm
 Dark and dusky painted on the sky,
D#D#             C#C#         G#G#
 Misty taste of moonshine, tears gone from my eye.

Chorus 2:

    G#G#      D#D#      C#C#
Country roads take me home, to the place I belong.
   G#G#       D#D#
West Jamaica, my ol' Mama ma ma,
          C#C#      G#G#
Won't you let me go home, country roads?

Interlude:

G#G# Fm, D#D# C#C# G#G# (x2)

Chorus 3:

    G#G#      D#D#      C#C#
Country roads take me home, to the place I belong.
   G#G#       D#D#         C#C#      G#G#
West Jamaica, my ol' Mama ma ma, take me home, country roads.

Chorus 4:

    G#G#      D#D#      C#C#
Country roads take me home, to the place I belong.
   G#G#       D#D#         C#C#      G#G#
West Jamaica, my ol' Mama ma ma, take me home, country roads.

(Repeat to Fade)
