[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
 
 
[Chorus]
    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

[Verse]
 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
 
 
[Chorus]
    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

[Verse]
 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                      
I hear my baby calling my name and 
   C
I know that she's the only one
    G                        D                C
And if I died in Raleigh at least I will die free
