Brandi Carlile and Emmylou Harris - Take Me Home, Country Roads

Almost Heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, blowing like the breeze

Country roads, take me home
To the place, where I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

All my memories gather 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to the water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrops in my eye

Country roads, take me home
To the place, where I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

I hear her voice in the morning light, she calls me
Radio reminds me of my home far away
Driving down the road, I get a feeling
Like I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

Country roads, take me home
To the place, where I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Country roads, take me home

Country roads, take me home
To the place, where I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

Take me home
To the place, where I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, on a country roads
Take me home, down a country road
Won't you take me home, down a country road
