[C]Headed down south to the [G]land of the pines    
And I'm [Am]thumbin' my way into [F]North Caroline    
[C]Starin' up the road    
And [G]pray to God I see [F]headlights    
 
I [C]made it down the coast in [G]seventeen hours    
[Am]Pickin' me a bouquet of [F]dogwood flowers    
And I'm a [C]hopin' for Raleigh    
I can [G]see my baby to-[F]night    
   
So [C]rock me mama like a [G]wagon wheel    
[Am]Rock me mama any [F]way you feel    
[C]Hey, [G]mama [F]rock me    
[C]Rock me mama like the [G]wind and the rain    
[Am]Rock me mama like a [F]south-bound train    
[C]Hey, [G]mama [F]rock me    
  
So [C]rock me mama like a [G]wagon wheel 
[Am]Rock me mama any [F]way you feel 
[C]Hey, [G]mama [F]rock me 
     
[C]Runnin' from the cold [G]up in New England    
I was [Am]born to be a fiddler in an [F]old-time stringband    
My [C]baby plays the guitar, [G]I pick a banjo [F]now    
 
Oh, the [C]North country winters keep a [G]gettin' me now    
Lost my [Am]money playin' poker, so I [F]had to leave town   
But I [C]ain't a turnin' back    
To [G]livin' that old life [F]no more    
 
So [C]rock me mama like a [G]wagon wheel    
[Am]Rock me mama any [F]way you feel    
[C]Hey, [G]mama [F]rock me    
[C]Rock me mama like the [G]wind and the rain    
[Am]Rock me mama like a [F]south-bound train    
[C]Hey, [G]mama [F]rock me    
  
So [C]rock me mama like a [G]wagon wheel 
[Am]Rock me mama any [F]way you feel 
[C]Hey, [G]mama [F]rock me 

[C]Walkin' to the south [G]out of Roanoke    
I caught a [Am]trucker out of Philly    
Had a [F]nice long toke    
But [C]he's a headed west from the [G]Cumberland Gap    
To [F]Johnson City, Tennessee    
 
And I [C]gotta get a move on [G]fit for the sun    
I hear my [Am]baby callin' my name and I [F]know that she's the only one    
And [C]if I die in Raleigh at [G]least I will die [F]free    
 
So [C]rock me mama like a [G]wagon wheel    
[Am]Rock me mama any [F]way you feel    
[C]Hey, [G]mama [F]rock me    
[C]Rock me mama like the [G]wind and the rain    
[Am]Rock me mama like a [F]south-bound train    
[C]Hey, [G]mama [F]rock me
