[A] [E] [F#m] [A]
[E] [A]
I'm headed down south to the land [F#m] of the pines I'm thumbing my way to North [A] Carolina
Staring up the road, I pray to God I see [D] headlights
I [A] made it down the coast in 17 [F#m] hours Picking me [D] a birdcad dogwood [A] flowers
And I'm hoping for Raleigh [E] I can see my baby [D] tonight
[A] So rock me mama like a wagon [F#m] wheel Rock me mama any way you [A] feel
Hey [B] mama [D] rock me Rock me [E] mama like the wind and [F#m] the rain
Rock me [D] mama like a southbound [A] train Hey [E] [D] mama rock me
[A]
[F#m] [D] [A]
[B] [D] [A]
Running from the [E] cold up in New [F#m] England I was born to be a [D] fiddler in an old town
string [A] band My baby plays the [E] guitar, I pick a [D] banjo
now [A] North country [E] winters keep getting me
And I [F#m] lost my money playing [D] poker so I had to opt for [A] leave
But I ain't gonna turn it [B] back, literally I don't [D] laugh no more
[A] So rock me [E] mama like a wagon [F#m] wheel Rock me [D] mama any way you [A] feel
Hey [E] [D] mama rock me [A]
Rock me [E] mama like the wind and the [F#m] rain

[E] [D] [A] Walking due [E] south out of Roanoke [F#m] I caught a trucker out of [D] Philly, had a nice
long [A] toke But he's headed [E] west from the Cumberland
[D] Gap To Johnson City, Tennessee
Then I gotta get a [E] move on before the [F#m] sun I hear my baby calling [D] my name and I know
that she's the [A] only one And if I die in [E] Raleigh, at least I [D] will die
free [A] So rock me [E] mama like a wagon [F#m] wheel
Rock me [D] mama any way you [A] feel Hey [E] [D] mama rock me
[A] Rock me [E] mama like the wind and the [F#m] rain Rock me [D] mama like a southbound [A] train
