Almost G heaven, Emi West Virginia,
D Blue Ridge Mountains, C Shenandoah G River.
Life is old there, Emi older than the trees,
D younger than the mountains
C growin' like a G breeze.
//R
Take me G home, country D roads to the Emi place I bel C ong.
West G Virginia, Mountain D momma, take me C home Country G roads
R//
All my G mem'ries, Emi gather round her,
D miner's lady, C stranger to blue G water.
Dark and dusty, Emi painted on the sky,
D misty taste of moonshine
C teardrop in my G eye.
//R//
//B
I Emi hear her D voice in the G morning hour she calls me,
The C radio remi G nds me of my D home far away
And Emi driving down the F road I get a C feeling
that I G should have been home D yesterday, yester D7 day.
