Verse 1
Country (C major) road (G major) s,
take me home (D major) (E minor) (C major)
(G major) (D major)
(C major) (G major)
It was 4 -24 -3 -0 -4 -7 -6,
another white (D major) trailer parked,
he was thrown in the mix
Class (E minor) clowned the head down
(C major) as I (E minor) walked through the hall
All (C major) the kids would call me f***
cause I could rhyme and play ball
But stand tall, (G major) daddy said
never lay your head low
Sum (D major) mer fishin' with my
pap in the Winnebago
Times (E minor) were tough,
but we made ends meet
(C major) Mama worked the miracles
just so we could eat
Always (G major) gettin' picked on
was the smallest in my class
Till I (D major) stood up to the bully
and whopped that kid
Daddy (E minor) was (C major) a (E minor) fruit stacker with white trash
(C major) Mr. Jones hid his wife
but I was too scared to ask
It's crazy when (G major) you think back
which memories last
Kissed a (D major) West Virginia boy
and a little of my past
Bittersweet (C major) when I look back,
the emotion it brings
I remem (G major) ber Mama rockin' me to sleep
as she was singin'
Country roads, take me home (D major)
To the place (E minor) where I be (C major) long
West (G major) Virginia, Ma and Mama (D major) (C major) (G major)
I'm 18 now and I'm free at last
But got a (D major) problem with the bottle
and I'm ballin' fast
Like self (E minor) -destruction
wasn't kids on the (C major) mission
I did a lot of (A minor) things
that (C major) wasn't really Christian
Wrong (G major) habits, wrong crowds,
a lot of things I ain't too proud
Ba (D major) sically a wild child,
drunk and high, screamin' loud
Hust (E minor) lin', dealin', robbin',
stealin' things that left my conscience reelin'
I'm (C major) alcoholic, I'm still healin'
Some of y 'all know the feelin'
(G major) Play with fire, you get burned
And listen, that'll never learn
Even (D major) tually, they called the law
What they seen, what they saw
Behind (C major) the bars, I did it (E minor) my col (C major) lect
Call a grandpa a judge
With a grudge,
and the man wouldn't budge
When (G major) all was said and done,
it was a three -year sentence
I'm (D major) prayin' in my cell,
beggin' Jesus for repentance
Pay (C major) in' for the wrong path
that Jason Malice chose
Now I'm (G major) starin' (C major) through these bars,
(G major) and I'm really missin' those
Country roads, take me home, (D major)
to the place, (E minor) where I belong, (C major)
West Virgini (G major) a, my mama,
(D major) take me home, (C major)
country roads (G major)
Now I had to get sober
and get right with the Lord,
Rapping (D major) on the porch,
that's where many things was born
Warned (C major) every ma (E minor) jor battle
next to Jay -Z on the stage
(C major) Called 50 Cent a punk
in front of thousands in a rage
The (G major) vulture start calling,
sign the dotted line
You (D major) should be listening
and here's how you should rhyme
Pack (C major) age me as a product,
(E minor) white boy that did time
(C major) Thousand people with my ear
and I nearly lost my mind
I (G major) kept on speaking,
no one listened to a word
Last (D major) straw was when they said to
say that I'm from Pittsburgh
I (C major) put down (E minor) the mic for two years
and didn't (C major) care
It wasn't about music,
then the burdens were bare
But my (G major) conscience wasn't right,
cause my people need a voice
Knew what (D major) I had to do,
and I didn't have a choice
I (C major) picked it back up,
West Virginia do or die
Can't (G major) live without (C major) mu (G major) sic,
so I represent my
Future roads, take me home, (D major)
to the place, (E minor) where I belong (C major)
West Vir (G major) ginia, my mama, (D major)
take me home, (C major)
