[Em] [G] All right, [E] today we're checking out John Denver.
We'll listen to the song Take Me Home Country Roads.
Let's [A] get into it.
Almost heaven, [F#m]
West Virginia, [E] Blue Ridge [D] Mountains, [A]
Shenandoah River.
Life is old [F#m] there, older than the trees, [E] younger than the [D] mountains, [A] growing like a breeze.
Country roads, [E] take me home [F#m] to the place [D] I belong.
West [A] Virginia,
[E] [D] take me home, [A] country roads.
All my [F#m] memories gather round [E] her, miners [D] lady, stranger [A] to blue water.
Dark and dusty, [F#m] painted on the [E] sky, misty taste of [Bm] moonshine, teardrop [A] in my eye.
Country roads, [E] take me home [F#m] to the place [D] I belong.
[A] West Virginia, [E] mountain mama, [D] take me home, [A] country roads.
[N]
Oh, I love it.
I love when it builds.
He's like, to the place I belong, country roads.
Yeah, that sounds so emotional.
Yeah.
It hits you in the feels.
Yeah.
And I don't even know anything about West Virginia or country roads, you know?
It's like, ooh, I feel it too.
But it's like, I feel that I know.
You know what I mean?
Like, at some level, it's very familiar.
I feel like these roads are very meaningful.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Like, just the sight of it, if you're away from home, probably gives you all the feelings.
Yeah, he said, misty moonshine.
I was like, ooh, that's that moonshine when you sleep overnight and it gets cold, and
then in the morning it's got that little frost.
You know what I mean?
Like, he's definitely outdoors.
Like, ah, such a [D] vibe.
I belong [A] country roads.
[F#m] I [E] hear her voice [A] in the morning hour.
She calls [D] me.
The radio [A] reminds me [E] of my home far away.
[F#m] Driving [G] down the road, I [D] get a feeling [A] that I should have [E] been home yesterday, yesterday.
[A] country [D] roads [A] [E] take me home [F#m] to the place [D] I belong [A] West Virginia [E] take [Bm] me [D]
home [A] country
roads country roads [E] take me home [F#m] to the place [D] I belong [A] West Virginia [E] now take [D] me home [A] country roads [E] take me [C#m] home [A] country roads [E] take me home
[A] home country roads
oh [B] well I feel like I miss my home in the country right
I've never even lived in the [A#] country I just feel like dang like you know I feel
like we had a farm I don't know it's those emotions like the emotions in the
music it gets to you.
It was beautiful that was so beautiful it was simple but it was so
beautiful.
I think it was the [F#m] vocals that did it.
Yeah.
Vocals are so powerful.
[C#] Yeah you're right.
You can [B] just convey [G#] way more feeling and emotion [A] in vocals
than you can through just music.
That's [Am] true.
The music may give you some [E] kind of
feeling but it's just easier to [A] convey it through vocals.
[E] Yeah.
You know what I mean?
[A] Music can amp you up, it can mellow you out and that kind of stuff but with vocals you can get a
very precise feeling across.
Yeah [E] I wonder what the art of [A] that is.
Do you actually have to feel it?
You [C#] know what I mean?
Probably.
Probably some weird neuron [A] stuff.
I don't know.
Right?
It's like if they feel it then we feel it listening to it but it's like I don't think it can be fake.
[A#] You can have a great singing voice and still not get the same emotion as someone who's cracking and [D#] screeching [G#] at the right places.
[G] I don't know.
[G#]
[Cm] Tell me man what do [G] you know?
[G#] Me and my boys [G] on the road.
[G#] Where we go?
She told me [G] boy where you go?
[G#] Like I don't know.
We'll listen to the song Take Me Home Country Roads.
