D              Hm
Almost heaven, West Virginia
A                     G          D
Blue Ridge Mountain, Shenandoah River
                   Hm
Life is old there, older than the trees
A
Younger than the mountains
G              D
Growing like a breeze

D                     A
Country roads take me home
       Hm      G
To the place I belong
     D                  A
West Virginia, Mountain Mama
        G            D
Take me home country roads

D               Hm
All my memories gather 'round her
A            G                D
Miners Lady, stranger to blue water
               Hm
Dark and dusky painted on the sky
A
Misty taste of moonshine
G              D
Teardrop in my eye

D                     A
Country roads take me home
       Hm      G
To the place I belong
     D                  A
West Virginia, Mountain Mama
        G            D
Take me home country roads

Hm         A            D                  D7
I hear the voice in the morning hour - she calls me
    G     D                A
The radio reminds me of my home far away
    Hm               C           G
And driving down the road I get a feeling
       D                     A           A7
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

D                     A
Country roads take me home
       Hm      G
To the place I belong
     D                  A
West Virginia, Mountain Mama
        G            D
Take me home country roads

I basically play the intro pattern throughout the entire song.
  I Play the bass note of the current chord, pluck the two bottom strings at the same 
time, then, (for most chords) I play the E-string  whilst holding the same chord, then 
pluck the two bottom strings again and proceed to the next chord.
