Welcome to this Take Me Home Country Roads Guitar Tutorial by John Denver! This is such an incredibly catchy song, and is a true american classic. Despite being Australian, I definitely feel american when I play this song lol. In this video i’ll teach you the easiest possible way of playing this song. And the best part? There are no barre chords! So great for beginners and newbies starting out. Be sure to learn this one to bust out at the next campfire.

[Verse 2]
G Em D C
All my memories gather round her, miner's lady, stranger to blue

Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my

eye.

West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.

I hear her voice in the morning hours she calls me

yesterday, yesterday.
