Capo #2
[G] [D] [Em] [C]
[G]2x [D] [C]
[G]Headed down south to the [D]land of the pines
And I'm [Em]thumbin' my way [C]into North Caroline
[G]Starin' up the road
And pray to [D]God I see [C]headlights
I [G]made it down the coast in [D]seventeen hours
[Em]Pickin' me a bouquet [C]of dogwood flowers
And I'm a [G]hopin' for Raleigh
I can [D]see my baby [C]tonight
So [G]rock me mama like a [D]wagon wheel
[Em]Rock me [C]mama anyway you feel
[G]Hey, [D]mama [C]rock me
[G]Rock me mama like the [D]wind and the rain
[Em]Rock me mama like [C]a south-bound train
[G]Hey, [D]mama [C]rock me
[G] [D] [Em] [C]
[G]Ru [D]ni [C]' from the cold up in New England
I was born to be a fiddler in an old-time stringband
My baby plays the guitar
I pick a banjo now
Oh, the North country winters keep a gettin' me now
Lost my money playin' poker so I had to up and leave
But I ain't a turnin' back
To livin' that old life no more
So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
Rock me mama anyway you feel
Hey, mama rock me
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
Rock me mama like a south-bound train
Hey, mama rock me
[G] [D] [Em] [C]
[G]2x [D] [C]
[G]Walkin' to the south [D]out of Roanoke
I caught a [Em]trucker out of Philly
Had a [C]nice long toke
But [G]he's a headed west from the [D]Cumberland Gap
To [C]Johnson City, Tennessee
And I [G]gotta get a move on [D]fit for the sun
I hear my [Em]baby callin' my name
And I [C]know that she's the only one
And [G]if I die in Raleigh
At [D]least I will die [C]free
So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
Rock me mama anyway you feel
Hey, mama rock me
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
Rock me mama like a south-bound train
Hey, mama rock me
