[Verse]
C G
I had to stop and catch my breath
C F
When the telephone rang out as loud as death
C G
It was three in the morning
C F
There was a low drone of katydids behind your voice
[Chorus]
C Em Bb F
And I came down from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
C G C G
And I saw you by the highway
[Verse]
C G
You asked me if the north was alright
C F
And I said that it got kind of cold at night
C G
I could feel your bones shivering
C F
Way down there in Birmingham
[Chorus]
C Em Bb F
And I came down from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
C G C G C F C G C F
And I saw you by the highway
[Verse]
C G
You reminded me of all the things you'd given up forever
C F
And you asked about the children and you asked about the weather
[Chorus]
C Em Bb F
And I came down from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
C G C G C F C G C F C
And I saw you by the highway
