Chorus:


D5
There are no roads here

There are no signposts
           C5                  D5
To guide a man thru this dark land
D5
There are no roads here

There is no history
           A5                D5 
No written law to stay one's hand

D5                                           C5               D5
Well there's a growed over wagon trail that's headed for the west
D5                                                A5                D5
There's a tipi ring out to Purple Springs if your ponies need their rest
A5                                        C5               D5
There's a shepherd out in Vauxhall in the coulees who may know
D5                                                 C5           D5
But the sheep shack's old and leaning and that was sixty years ago




Chorus:


D5
There are no roads here

There are no signposts
           C5                  D5
To guide a man thru this dark land
D5
There are no roads here

There is no history
           A5                D5 
No written law to stay one's hand

Well, I see handcarts pulled by desperate settlers bent under the yoke
D5                                            A5                D5
Fleeing lives of certain serfdom for this new faith of which he spoke
A5                                C5            D5
Trekking 'cross the desert with a few intrepid Danes
D5                                                  C5             D5
There's times I still think I can feel the blood of Vikings in my veins

I hear "Strawberry Roan" and there's bison bones been bleached out in the sun
D5                                   A5             D5
South of Raymond, whiskey trade, the antelope still run
A5                           C5                D5
Hidden family reasons at the edge of consciousness
D5                                    C5               D5
Silhouettes of grazing cattle on that olde Milk River Ridge

There are no signposts
           C5                  D5
To guide a man thru this dark land
D5
There are no roads here

There is no history
           A5                D5 
No written law to stay one's hand



            A5                 
...No written law to stay one's hand
