[Verse 1]
D Bm
F# long time ago came a man on a track
A G
walking thirty miles with a sack on his back
G A D A
and he put down his load where he thought it was the best
G Em7 G
He made a home in the wilderness
D Bm
He built a cabin and a winter store
A G
and he ploughed up the ground by the cold lake shore
G A D A
and the other travellers came riding down the track
G Em7 G
and they never went further and they never went back
D Bm
Then came the churches then came the schools
A G
then came the lawyers then came the rules
G A D A
Then came the trains and the trucks with their loads
G (D5)
and the dirty old track was the telegraph road

[Verse 2]
D Bm
Then came the mines - then came the ore
A G
then there was the hard times then there was a war
G A D A
Telegraph sang a song about the world outside
G Em7 G
telegraph road got so deep and so wide
G (F)
like a rolling river. . .

B Em Em
And my radio says tonight it's gonna freeze
Bm Bm
People driving home from the factories
A
There's six lanes of traffic
F#m Bm A
Three lanes moving slow. . .

[Verse 3]
A D Bm
I used to like to go to work but they shut it down
A G
I've got a right to go to work but there's no work here to be found
G A D A
Yes and they say we're gonna have to pay what's owed
G Em7 G
We're gonna have to reap from seed that's been sowed
D Bm
And the birds up on the wires and the telegraph poles
A G
They can always fly away from this rain and this cold
G A D A
You can hear them singing out their telegraph code
G Bm
all the way down the telegraph road

[Verse 4]
(B) Bm Dm
You know I'd sooner forget but I remember those nights
A G
When life was just a bet on a race between the lights
G A D A
You had your head on my shoulder, you had your hand in my hair
G Em7
Now you act a little colder like you don't seem to care
G D Bm
But believe in me baby and I'll take you away
A G
From out of this darkness and into the day
G A D A D
From these rivers of headlights, these rivers of rain
G A D A D
From the anger that lives on the streets with these names
G A D A D
'Ccos I've run every red light on memory lane
G A D A D
I've seen desperation explode into flames
G A D A
And I don't wanna see it again. . .
F#m Bm
From all of these signs saying sorry but we're closed
G D G
all the way down the telegraph road
