[Verse 1]
F#
Oh,
the whispers get old in this postcard town
Badd9
And the streets are cobblestone they echo the sound
F#
As I reminisce and listen
Badd9
Maybe I ought to leave
[Pre-Chorus]
F#
And I know the evergreens are swaying somewhere north of me
Badd9
Leave the peace I find beneath those old cedar trees
G#m
I'll miss you
But before the sun comes up
I gotta go
Badd9
I gotta go
C# G#m
Oh, Appalachia
[Chorus]
Badd9
I promise I don't hate you
F# C#
But you can only go so far in a tenmile town
G#m
Iâll love you from a distance
Badd9
Come back to you on Christmas
F# D#m7
I swear the river's rising and I don't wanna drown
G#m
Oh, Appalachia
Badd9
Please forgive me
F#
Wish I could take you with me
[Verse 2]
F#
I'll go walking for miles and I won't see your face
Badd9
In a town where everybody knows everybody's name
F#
Well I get tired
Badd9
I get tired of the same old thing
[Pre-Chorus]
F#
And I know the evergreens are swaying somewhere north of me
Badd9
Leave the peace I find beneath those old cedar trees
G#m
I'll miss you
But before the sun comes up
I gotta go
Badd9
I gotta go
C# G#m
Oh, Appalachia
[Chorus]
Badd9
I promise I don't hate you
F# C#
But you can only go so far in a tenmile town
G#m
Iâll love you from a distance
Badd9
Come back to you on Christmas
F# D#m7
I swear the river's rising and I don't wanna drown
G#m
Oh, Appalachia
Badd9
Please forgive me
F#
Wish I could take you with me
[Bridge]
Oh,
G#m Badd9
I'll drive on a road I've never taken
F# C#
I'll tell you when I make it, Appalachia
Oh,
G#m Badd9
I'll drive on a road I've never taken
F# D#m7
I'll tell you when I make it, Appalachia
G#m
Oh, Appalachia
[Outro]
Badd9
Please forgive me
F#
Wish I could take you with me
