Chords for Old Crow Medicine Show - Wagon Wheel (Rare Version)

Which was a good story, wasn't it?
Because you came to the festival and you weren't originally going to play, were you?
No, we were here hanging out with Gillian Welch and David Rawlins.
We were in support of them over in the UK.
We just started playing on the street corner in front of the Mojo tent and had them rocking.
And then as it turned out, one of the bands couldn't make it that night, so we performed on the main stage.
Yeah, I think it was the Dixie Hummingbirds got held up somewhere, didn't they?
And you got your chance and you rocked the festival, so you're back this year.
But busking is [E] kind of what you do.
That's how it started, isn't it?
Yeah, we started on the street corner playing music and entertaining people that way.
Where was this?
Oh, back in the States and also in Canada.
We've played all over the country, playing on the corners.
But the past couple [D] of years, we've actually made it in the door of a few locations as well.
Right, [A#] OK, good.
Well, we're going to hear you play now.
If you can hear any noise in the background, I think you're competing with the Galician Pipe [D] Extravaganza that's just about to start.
But we'll give it a go anyway.
Good to see you.
What are you going to play for us?
We're going to give you a wagon wheel.
OK, great.

due [E] south out [F#m] of Roanoke,
I caught a trucker out of Philly, [D] he had a nice long [A] toque.
But he's headed [E] west from the Cumberland [Dm] Gap to Johnson City,
[A] Tennessee, and I gotta get a move [E] on, baby, for [F#m] the sun.
I hear my baby [D] calling my name, and I know that [A] she's the only one,
And if I [E] die in Raleigh, at least [D] I will die free.

Rock me mama [D] any way [A] you please.
