Take Me Home Country Roads
John Denver 1971
  (Riverboat 531)   Mitchell Osawa, Kumi Takahashi
 
two columns

OPENER - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains

Allemande and weave
Country roads, take me home, to the place
Swing and promenade
West Virginia, mountain mamma
Take me home, country roads


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads (sides) promenade halfway around
Down the middle and pass the ocean, then extend
Swing thru, when you do boys you trade, hinge by the right
Split circulate twice, boys you fold, double pass thru
Girls U-turn back, swing and promenade
West Virginia, mountain mamma
Take me home, country roads


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Head (Side) two promenade just halfway around the ring
Side (Head) two go right & left thru, turn the girl and then
Head (Side) two square thru four hands around
Dosado your corner and do an eight chain four
Country roads, take me home, to the place
Swing and promenade
West Virginia, mountain mamma
Take me home, country roads


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face, grand square
All my memories gather 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine

Allemande and weave
Country roads, take me home, to the place, Swing and Promenade
West Virginia, mountain mamma, take me home, country roads
