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

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