[Verse 1] 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

[Verse 2] 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 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 Yeah, 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
