Is this strumming pattern correct?

[Verse 1]
 
       C       Am                G
Almost heaven,   West Virginia,   Blue Ridge Mountains,
F          C       C                   Am
Shenandoah River.  life is old there,  older than the trees,
G                            F                 C
younger than the mountains,  growin like a breeze.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
        C               G             Am            F               C
Country roads,  take me home,  to the place,  I belong,  West Virginia,
         G              F              C
mountain mama.  take me home,  country roads.
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
       C          Am                 G            F                  C
All my memories,  gather round her,  miners lady, stranger to blue water.
C                Am                   G
Dark and dusty,  painted on the sky,  misty taste of moonshine,
F                 C
tear drop in my eyes.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
        C               G             Am            F               C
Country roads,  take me home,  to the place,  I belong,  West Virginia,
         G              F              C
mountain mama.  take me home,  country roads.
 
 
[Bridge]
 
Am         G             C
I hear her voice, in the morning hour she calls me,
    F        C             G
the radio reminds me of my home far away.
    Am               Bb            F              C
and driving down the road, I get a feeling that I should have been home.
G                 G7
Yesterday, yesterday.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
        C               G             Am            F               C
Country roads,  take me home,  to the place,  I belong,  West Virginia,
         G              F              C
mountain mama.  take me home,  country roads.
        C               G             Am            F               C
Country roads,  take me home,  to the place,  I belong,  West Virginia,
         G              F              C
mountain mama.  take me home,  country roads.
        G              C
Take me home,  country roads.
        G              C
Take me home,  country roads.

First chord is A if you strum along with the record so then transpose -3 [road G# then becomes G]

In the Bridge shouldn't the first yesterday, have a G chord over the 'd' of yesterday instead of the 'y'? Everyone seems to have it wrong or I have ha ha!

i like it in this key now i vocally sing along other ways its to high for me great one :)
