[Verse 1]
A F#m
C# long time ago came a man on a track
E D
walking thirty miles with a sack on his back
D E A E
and he put down his load where he thought it was the best
D Bm7 D
He made a home in the wilderness
A F#m
He built a cabin and a winter store
E D
and he ploughed up the ground by the cold lake shore
D E A E
and the other travellers came riding down the track
D Bm7 D
and they never went further and they never went back
A F#m
Then came the churches then came the schools
E D
then came the lawyers then came the rules
D E A E
Then came the trains and the trucks with their loads
D (D5)
and the dirty old track was the telegraph road

Then came the mines - then came the ore
E D
then there was the hard times then there was a war
D E A E
Telegraph sang a song about the world outside
D Bm7 D
telegraph road got so deep and so wide
D (F)
like a rolling river. . .

And my radio says tonight it's gonna freeze

People driving home from the factories

There's six lanes of traffic

[Verse 3]
E A F#m
I used to like to go to work but they shut it down
E D
I've got a right to go to work but there's no work here to be found
D E A E
Yes and they say we're gonna have to pay what's owed
D Bm7 D
We're gonna have to reap from seed that's been sowed
A F#m
And the birds up on the wires and the telegraph poles
E D
They can always fly away from this rain and this cold
D E A E
You can hear them singing out their telegraph code
D F#m
all the way down the telegraph road

[Verse 4]
(F#) F#m Dm
You know I'd sooner forget but I remember those nights
E D
When life was just a bet on a race between the lights
D E A E
You had your head on my shoulder, you had your hand in my hair
D Bm7
Now you act a little colder like you don't seem to care
D A F#m
But believe in me baby and I'll take you away
E D
From out of this darkness and into the day
D E A E A
From these rivers of headlights, these rivers of rain
D E A E A
From the anger that lives on the streets with these names
D E A E A
'Ccos I've run every red light on memory lane
D E A E A
I've seen desperation explode into flames
D E A E
And I don't wanna see it again. . .
C#m F#m
From all of these signs saying sorry but we're closed
D A D
all the way down the telegraph road
