Verse:
C            Fmaj7  C
I was there in the rain
C                 G          C
Man, even if them skies were blue
C                     Fmaj7      C
You can find me on the corner of Durant
     Am       G  C
And Telegraph Avenue
C               Fmaj7 C
When I was only 17
C             G      C
I knew what I had to do
C                    Fmaj7   C
So I grabbed my left handed guitar
Am                            G   C
And I headed out to Telegraph Avenue

Chorus:
F                                   C
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na
F                                   Am
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na
   G
Oh yeah

Verse:
C            Fmaj7  C
Mario Savio gave a speech
C                  G     C
It was him against The Machine
C                    Fmaj7     C
For that he spent 3 months in jail
C                Am     G
But he said he'd do it again
C               Fmaj7  G
Governor Reagan had enough
C                          G         C
So the National Guard they pushed on through
C            Fmaj7   C
Tear gas and riot police
Am           G   C
On Telegraph Avenue

Chorus:
F                                   C
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na
F                                   Am
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na

Oh yeah

Verse:
C                      Fmaj7      C
The ones who stand for freedom of speech
C                  G      C
Well this one goes out to you
C                Fmaj7     C
Well I can still hear your voice
Am           G  C
On Telegraph Avenue

Chorus:
F                                   C
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na
F                                   Am
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na
