Got my old guitar in a white-eared highway, dust and gravel in my rear nighway
With a six-pack and a promise, hittin' straight into the blue
The moon and my gas tank are both full, gonna chase those dreams till I'm home
The moon and my gas tank are both full
Country roads, take me home, take control
Got my boots on and a truck full of hope, leave the city and the stress behind
Out here where the pavement ends, freedom runs down every bend
Got my old guitar in the wide-open sky, singin' songs about you and I
With every mile my heart feels lighter, dreams get bolder, stars grow brighter
Drivin' down this old dirt highway, dust and gravel in my rearview
With a six-pack and a promise, hittin' straight into the blue
The moon and my gas tank are both full, gonna chase those dreams till I'm home
The moon and my gas tank are both full
Country roads, take me home, take control
Stars above are guiding my way, winding roads and fields of green
I've left those city lights behind, in this moment I feel so free
The moon and my gas tank are both full, gonna chase those dreams till I'm home
The moon and my gas tank are both full
Country roads, take me home, take control
Guitars strummed as the dawn breaks through, a journey that's as old as time
But every chord feels like I knew, this road would lead to somethin' so divine
Wind in my hair, no destination, just a ridin' as my guide
No bare map, just pure elation, on this late-night country ride
The moon and my gas tank are both full, gonna chase those dreams till I'm home
The moon and my gas tank are both full
Country roads, take me home, take control
Country roads, take me home, take control
Country roads, take me home, take control
