VERSE 1:
[F#] Heading down south to the
[C#] land of the pines
[D#m] I'm thumbing my way into
[B] North Caroline
[F#] Staring up the road and
[C#] pray to God I see
[B] headlights
[F#] I made it down the coast in
[C#] seventeen hours
[D#m] Picking me a bouquet of
[B] dogwood flowers
And I'm a-
[F#]-hopin' for Raleigh, I can
[C#] see my baby to-
[B]-night
CHORUS:
So
[F#] rock me momma like a
[C#] wagon wheel
[D#m] Rock me momma any
[B] way you feel
[F#] Hey,
[C#] momma
[B] rock me
[F#] Rock me momma like the

[F#] Hey,
[C#] momma
[B] rock me

VERSE 2:
[F#] Running from the cold
[C#] up in New England
I was
[D#m] born to be a fiddler in an
[B] old time string band
My
[F#] baby plays a guitar,
[C#] I pick a banjo
[B] now
Oh,
[F#] north country winters keep a-
[C#] getting me down
I lost my
[D#m] money playing poker so I
[B] had to leave town
But I
[F#] ain't turning back to
[C#] living that old life
[B] no more
REPEAT CHORUS:
BREAK: [over CHORUS]
VERSE 3:
[F#] Walkin' to the south
[C#] out of Roanoke
I caught a
[D#m] trucker out of Philly had a
[B] nice long toke
But
[F#] he's a heading west from the
[C#] Cumberland gap, to
[B] Johnson City, Tennessee
And I
[F#] gotta get a move on
[C#] before the sun
I hear my
[D#m] baby calling my name and I
[B] know that she's the only one
And
[F#] if I died in Raleigh at
[C#] least I will die
[B] free
REPEAT CHORUS: (one strum each chord)

OUTRO: [over CHORUS]
