Darius Rucker   "Wagon Wheel"
[No capo needed.]
 
[Intro]
A  E  F#m  D, A  E  F#m  D, A  E  D,
 
[Verse]
A                         E
Heading down south to the land of the pines
F#m                       D
I'm thumbing my way into North Caroline
A                       E                 D
Staring up the road and pray to God I see headlights
A                           E
I made it down the coast in seventeen hours
F#m                      D
Picking me a bouquet of dogwood flowers
          A                        E              D
And I'm a-hopin' for Raleigh, I can see my baby tonight
 
[Chorus]
   A                    E
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel
F#m                D
Rock me momma any way you feel
A   E       D
Hey,  momma rock me
A                      E
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain
F#m                   D
Rock me momma like a south bound train
A   E       D
Hey,  momma rock me
 
[Instrumental]
A  E  F#m  D, A  E  D,
 
[Verse]
A                     E
Running from the cold up in New England
      F#m                         D
I was born to be a fiddler in an old time string band
   A                    E              D
My baby plays a guitar, I pick a banjo now
    A                            E
Oh, north country winters keep a-getting me down
          F#m                       D
I lost my money playing poker so I had to leave town
      A                     E                    D
But I ain't turning back to living that old life no more
 
[Chorus]
   A                   E
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel
F#m                D
Rock me momma any way you feel
A   E       D
Hey,  momma rock me
A                      E
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain
F#m                   D
Rock me momma like a south bound train
A   E       D
Hey,  momma rock me
 
[Instrumental]
A  E  F#m  D, A  E  D,
 
[Verse]
A                    E
Walkin' to the south out of Roanoke
           F#m                          D
I caught a trucker out of Philly had a nice long toke
    A                            E
But he's a heading west from the Cumberland gap
   D
To Johnson City, Tennessee
      A                   E
And I gotta get a move on before the sun
          F#m                         D
I hear my baby calling my name and I know that she's the only one
    A                       E                D
And if I died in Raleigh at least I will die free
 
[Chorus]
