[Verse 1]
---------------------
C F Dm
A long time ago came a man on a track
C Bb
Walking thirty miles with a sack on his back
Bb C F C
And he put down his load where he thought it was the best
Bb Gm7
He made a home in the wilderness
Gm7 Bb F Dm
He built a cabin and a winter store
C Bb
And he plowed up the ground by the cold lake shore
Bb C F C
And the other travelers came walking down the track
Bb Gm7 Gm7 Bb
And they never went further, and they never went back
[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
F Dm
Then came the churches, then came the schools
C Bb
Then came the lawyers, then came the rules
Bb C F C
Then came the trains and the trucks with their loads
Bb Dm F
And the dirty old track was the telegraph road

F Dm
Then came the mines, then came the ore
C Bb
Then there was the hard times, then there was a war
Bb C F C
Telegraph sang a song about the world outside
Bb Gm7
Telegraph road got so deep and so wide
Gm7 Bb F
Like a rolling river
[Chorus (2)]

D Gm
And my radio says tonight it's gonna freeze
Dm
People driving home from the factories
C
There's six lanes of traffic
Am Dm C
Three lanes moving slow

[Verse 3]
---------------------
F Dm
I used to like to go to work, but they shut it down
C Bb
I've got a right to go to work, but there's no work here to be found
Bb C F C
Yes, and they say we're gonna have to pay what's owed
Bb Gm7
We're gonna have to reap from some seed that's been sowed
[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
Gm7 Bb F Dm
And the birds up on the wires and the telegraph poles
C Bb
They can always fly away from this rain and this cold
Bb C F C
You can hear them singing out their telegraph code
Bb Dm F
All the way down the telegraph road
[Pre-Verse (4)]

D F Dm
Well, I'd sooner forget, but I remember those nights
C Bb
When life was just a bet on a race between the lights
Bb C F C
You had your head on my shoulder, you had your hand in my hair
Bb Gm7
Now you act a little colder, like you don't seem to care
[Chorus (4)]
---------------------
Gm7 Bb F Dm
But just believe in me, baby, and I'll take you away
C Bb
From out of this darkness and into the day
Bb C F C F
From these rivers of headlights, these rivers of rain
Bb C F C F
From the anger that lives on the streets with these names
Bb C F C F
Cause I've run every red light on memory lane
Bb C F C F
I've seen desperation explode into flames
Bb C F C
And I don't want to see it again
[Break (2)]
---------------------
Am Dm
From all of these signs saying, "sorry, but we're closed"
Bb
All the way
F Bb
Down the telegraph road
