Darius Rucker - Wagon Wheel

[intro] x3
A  E  ( F#m )  D

[verse]
 A                         E
Heading down south to the land of the pines
F#m                        D
I'm thumbing my way into North Caroline
  A                      E                 D
Staring up the road and pray to God I see headlights
A                            E
I made it down the coast in seventeen hours
F#m                       D
Picking me a bouquet of dogwood flowers
          A                          E             D
And I'm a-hopin' for Raleigh, I can see my baby tonight

[chorus]
    A                    E
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel
F#m                D
Rock me momma any way you feel
 A  E        D
Hey,  momma rock me
 A                      E
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain
 F#m                   D
Rock me momma like a south bound train
 A  E        D
Hey,  momma rock me

[instrumental] x2
A  E  ( F#m )  D

[verse]
 A                    E
Running from the cold up in New England
      F#m                         D
I was born to be a fiddler in an old time string band
   A                    E              D
My baby plays a guitar, I pick a banjo now
     A                            E
Oh, north country winters keep a-getting me down
           F#m                       D
I lost my money playing poker so I had to leave town
      A                      E                   D
But I ain't turning back to living that old life no more

[chorus]
    A                    E
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel
 F#m                D
Rock me momma any way you feel
 A  E        D
Hey,  momma rock me
 A                      E
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain
 F#m                   D
Rock me momma like a south bound train
 A  E        D
Hey,  momma rock me

[verse]
 A                    E
Walkin' to the south out of Roanoke
            F#m                          D
I caught a trucker out of Philly had a nice long toke
     A                            E
But he's a heading west from the Cumberland gap
    D
To Johnson City, Tennessee
       A                   E
And I gotta get a move on before the sun
           F#m                         D
I hear my baby calling my name and I know that she's the only one
    A                        E                D
And if I died in Raleigh at least I will die free

[chorus]
    A                   E
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel
 F#m                D
Rock me momma any way you feel
 A  E        D
Hey,  momma rock me
 A                      E
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain
 F#m                   D
Rock me momma like a south bound train
 A  E        D
Hey,  momma rock me

    A                    E
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel
 F#m                D
Rock me momma any way you feel
 A  E        D
Hey,  momma rock me
 A                      E
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain
 F#m                   D
Rock me momma like a south bound train
 A  E        D
Hey,  momma rock me
