Verse 1:
                          
G                        D
                                          
Headed down south to the land of the pines
                              
        Em                   C
                                           
And I'm thumbin' my way into North Caroline
         
G        
                   
Starin' up the road
                       
    D                 C
                                
And pray to God I see headlights
                             
  G                         D
                                           
I made it down the coast in seventeen hours
                         
Em                      C
                                       
Pickin' me a bouquet of dogwood flowers
               
          G    
                            
And I'm a hopin' for Raleigh
                     
      D             C
                         
I can see my baby tonight
       
Chorus:
                        
   G                   D
                                  
So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
                 
Em              C
                            
Rock me mama anyway you feel
             
G  D     C   
                
Hey mama rock me
                       
G                     D
                                       
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
                     
Em                  C
                                     
Rock me mama like a south-bound train
          
G  D     C
                
Hey mama rock me
        
Verse 2:
                       
G                     D
                                       
Runnin' from the cold up in New England
                                  
      Em                         C
                                                    
I was born to be a fiddler in an old-time stringband
                         
   G                    D
                        
My baby plays the guitar
                
               C
                  
I pick a banjo now
                                      
        G                            D
                                                   
Oh, the North country winters keep a gettin' me now
                                  
        Em                       C
                                                    
Lost my money playin' poker so I had to up and leave
                 
      G          
                          
But I ain't a turnin' back
                         
   D                    C
                               
To livin' that old life no more
       
Chorus:
                        
   G                   D
                                  
So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
                 
Em              C
                            
Rock me mama anyway you feel
             
G  D     C   
                
Hey mama rock me
                       
G                     D
                                       
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
                     
Em                  C
                                     
Rock me mama like a south-bound train
          
G  D     C
                
Hey mama rock me
         
Verse 3: 
                      
G                    D
                                   
Walkin' to the south out of Roanoke
               
           Em  
                                
I caught a trucker out of Philly
       
      C
                    
Had a nice long toke
                                 
    G                           D
                                              
But he's a headed west from the Cumberland Gap
                
   C            
                          
To Johnson City, Tennessee
                           
      G                   D
                                         
And I gotta get a move on fit for the sun
             
          Em 
                              
I hear my baby callin' my name
       
      C
                                  
And I know that she's the only one
      
    G 
                       
And if I die in Raleigh
                     
   D                C
                        
At least I will die free
       
Chorus:
                        
   G                   D
                                  
So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
                 
Em              C
                            
Rock me mama anyway you feel

Hey mama rock me
                       
G                     D
                                       
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
                     
Em                  C
