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

[F#m] Rock me momma like a
[D] south bound train
[A] Hey,
[E] momma
[D] rock me

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