Old Crow Medicine Show - Wagon Wheel

Intro:

A E D 

A                        E 
Headed down south to the land of the pines
        F#m                   D 
And I'm thumbin' my way into North Caroline
A 
Starin' up the road
            E         D 
And pray to God I see headlights

I made it down the coast in seventeen hours
Pickin' me a bouquet of dogwood flowers
And I'm a hopin' for Raleigh
I can see my baby tonight

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

Runnin' 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

Solo:
A E F#m D 
A E D 

Walkin' to the south out of Roanoke
I caught a trucker out of Philly
Had a nice long toke
But he's a headed west from the Cumberland Gap
To Johnson City, Tennessee

And I gotta get a move on fit for the sun
I hear my baby callin' my name
And I know that she's the only one
And if I die in Raleigh
At least I will die free
