TO GET THIS CORRECT THE FIRST "G" CHORD AFTER THE VIOLIN PART ABOVE WILL CORRISPOND TO

*I can get it right, it just take some getting used to comment if you need help

[G]Headed down south to the [D]land of the pines

I'm t[Em]humbin' my way into N[C]orth Caroline

[G]Starin' up the road

And pray to [D]God I see [C]headlights

I [G]made it down the coast in [D]seventeen hours

[Em]Pickin' me a bouquet of [C]dogwood flowers

And I'm a [G]hopin' to Raleigh

I can [D]see my baby to[C]night

So [G]rock me mama like a [D]wagon wheel

[Em]Rock me mama any[C]way you feel

[G]Hey,[D] mama [C]rock me

[G]Rock me mama like the [D]wind and the rain

[Em]Rock me mama like a [C]south-bound train

[G]Hey,[D] mama [C]rock me

R[G]unnin' from the cold up[D] in New England

I was [Em]born to be a fiddler in an [C]old-time stringband

My [G]baby plays the guitar

[D]I pick a banjo [C]now

Oh, the [G]North country winters keep a [D]gettin' me now

Lost my [Em]money playin' poker so I [C]had to up and leave

But I [G]ain't a turnin' back

To [D]livin' that old life [C]no more

So [G]rock me mama like a [D]wagon wheel

[Em]Rock me mama any[C]way you feel

[G]Hey,[D] mama [C]rock me

[G]Rock me mama like the [D]wind and the rain

[Em]Rock me mama like a [C]south-bound train

[G]Hey,[D] mama [C]rock me

[(G)] [(D)]

Walkin' to the south out of Roanoke

I caught a[(Em)] trucker out of Philly

Had a[(C)] nice long toke

But[(G)] he's a headed west from the[(D)] Cumberland Gap

To[(C)] Johnson City, Tennessee

And I [G]gotta get a move on [D]fit for the sun

I hear my [Em]baby callin' my name

And I [C]know that she's the only one

And [G]if I die in Raleigh

At [D]least I will die [C]free

So [G]rock me mama like a [D]wagon wheel

[Em]Rock me mama any[C]way you feel

[G]Hey,[D] mama [C]rock me

[G]Rock me mama like the [D]wind and the rain

[Em]Rock me mama like a [C]south-bound train
