| [G] | [D] | [Em] | [C] |
| [G] | [D] | [C]   | [C] |
| [G] Headed down south to the | [D] land of the pines
I'm | [Em] thumbin' my way into | [C] North Caroline |
| [G] Starin' up the road
And | [D] pray to God I see | [C] headlights | [C]

I | [G] made it down the coast in | [D] seventeen hours |
| [Em] Pickin' me a bouquet of | [C] dogwood flowers
And I'm a | [G] hopin' for Raleigh
I can | [D] see my baby to- | [C] night | [C]

Chorus
So | [G] rock me mama like a | [D] wagon wheel
| [Em] Rock me mama any | [C] way you feel |
| [G] Hey, | [D] mama | [C] rock me | [C] |
| [G] Rock me mama like the | [D] wind and the rain |
| [Em] Rock me mama like a | [C] south-bound train |
| [G] Hey, | [D] mama | [C] rock me | [C] |
| [G] | [D] | [Em] | [C] |
| [G] | [D] | [C]   | [C] |

| [G] Runnin' from the cold | [D] up in New England
I was | [Em] born to be a fiddler in an | [C] old-time stringband
My | [G] baby plays the guitar |
| [D] I pick a banjo | [C] now | [C]

Oh, the | [G] North country winters keep a | [D] gettin' me now
Lost my | [Em] money playin' poker so I | [C] had to up and leave
But I | [G] ain't a turnin' back
To | [D] livin' that old life no | [C] more | [C]

Chorus
So | [G] rock me mama like a | [D] wagon wheel |
| [Em] Rock me mama any | [C] way you feel |
| [G] Hey, | [D] mama | [C] rock me | [C] |
| [G] Rock me mama like the | [D] wind and the rain |
| [Em] Rock me mama like a | [C] south-bound train
| [G] Hey, | [D] mama | [C] rock me | [C] |
| [G] | [D] | [Em] | [C] |
| [G] | [D] | [C]   | [C] |

| [G↓] Walkin' to the south | [D↓] out of Roanoke
I caught a | [Em↓] trucker out of Philly
Had a | [C↓] nice long talk
But | [G↓] he's a headed west from the | [D↓] Cumberland Gap
To | [C↓] Johnson City, | [C↓] Tennessee

And I | [G] gotta get a move on | [D] fit for the sun
I hear my | [Em] baby callin' my name
And I | [C] know that she's the only one
And | [G] if I die in Raleigh
At | [D] least I will die | [C] free | [C]

Chorus
So | [G] rock me mama like a | [D] wagon wheel |
| [Em] Rock me mama any | [C] way you feel |
| [G] Hey, | [D] mama | [C] rock me | [C] |
| [G] Rock me mama like the | [D] wind and the rain |
| [Em] Rock me mama like a | [C] south-bound train |
| [G] Hey, | [D] mama | [C] rock me | [C]   | [G↓]
