[Verse 1]
 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 2]
 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
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        Follow the Drinking Gourd
