Take Me Home, Country Roads Guitar Chords
Posted by Guitar Lessons
Here’s how to play “Take Me Home, Country Roads” by John Denver on guitar. What a classic sing-along perfect for your next campfire. Get the s’mores ready and pull up a log – time to learn this beloved American song on guitar.
Released in 1971, “Country Roads” has become synonymus with West Virginia and has become one of the state’s official anthems.
The song has been covered by Olivia Newton-John in 1973 and Dutch pop band Hermes House Band in 2001. A version even appeared in the videogame Fallout 76.
There are mostly open chords and just one barre chord – F major. Don’t fret, it only appears once time, in the bridge. It’s a good time to practice your barre chords or find one of the open versions of the F chord if you like.
