Great Song by OCMS
i saw the other tablature and this is the way to play it so you dont need a capo.
Verse:
A E
Heading down south to the land of the pines.
Fm D
I’m thumbing my way into North Caroline.
A E D
Staring up the road pray to God I see headlights.
A E
I made it down the coast in seventeen hours,
Fm D
Picking me a bouquet of dogwood flowers.
A
And I’m a hopin’ for Raleigh,
E D
I can see my baby tonight.
[Chorus:]
A E
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel,
Fm 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,
Fm E
Rock me momma like a south bound train.
A E D
Hey momma rock me

| First off, bluegrass, simply amazing!!! When I hear the song I think of leaving the girl because you need to clean up your life. Runnin' from the cold up in New England (obviously he was running from something and left home to do so) I was born to be a fiddler in an old-time stringband (sometimes in harmony with the guitar but mostly off beat) My baby plays the guitar I pick a banjo now (now he is in harmony with her but still has his own personality) And I gotta get a move on before the sun I hear my baby callin' my name (she's waiting for him to come back and he can't wait to get to her) And I know that she's the only one And if I die in Raleigh At least I will die free (love was the reason he changed and he feels things will be perfect) | |

| "by tahi193 on 06-17-2006 @ 08:59:11 AM This song is like going home. I'm from Boone, NC." This is such a great song- my girl used to sing it to me... listening to it takes me halfway around the world back to my home in SC. | |

| Basically the whole thing is about going home to the woman he loves. I think one reason it's such a good song is because the theme touches all of us on different levels, i.e. it could literally be about a man traveling across the U.S. of A. to get home to his girl, or maybe the woman feels the man isn't ready for her, and he needs to grow up for a while before she will take him in again. | |

| Wonderful song, one of the bounciest, happiest "see my baby" songs ever written. Originally a Dylan lyric rewritten by OCMS. | |
