Country Roads - John Denver Cover - HIVE Open Mic 64 - Fantasy

Hey Open Mic Family

This week I have been learning to play John Denvers Country Roads and I thought why not try playing it for you guys.

I guess I am tying this to the fantasy theme as I get images of country life in my head when I play the song.
Blueridge mountians the Shanandoah river...pine trees the easy pace of country life it does kind of make us fantasise about that idyilic existance.

I hope you guys enjoy my version of this old country classic.

"Country Roads"
John Denver

Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, growin' like a breeze

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads

All my memories, gather 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrops in my eyes

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads

I hear her voice in the mornin' hour she calls me
Radio reminds me of my home far away
Drivin' down the road I get a feelin'
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads
