Verse:   

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


     G                    D     
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel    
Em                C    
Rock me momma any way you feel    
G   D       C    
Hey,  momma rock me    
G                      D    
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain    
Em                   C    
Rock me momma like a south bound train    
G   D       C    
Hey,  momma rock me

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


     G                    D     
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel

G   D       C    
Hey,  momma rock me    
G                      D    
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain    
Em                   C    
Rock me momma like a south bound train    
G   D       C    
Hey,  momma rock me

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