[Intro]
Am Dm Fmaj7 E7 Am
[Verse 1]
Am Dm
Well I'm standing by a river, but the water doesn't flow
Fmaj7 E7 Am
It boils with every poison you can think of.
Am Dm
And I'm underneath the street light, the de-light of joy I know,
Fmaj7 E7 Am
Scared beyond be-lief, way down in the shadows.
C G
And the per-verted fear of violence, chokes the smile on every face,
Fmaj7 E7
Common sense is ringing out the bells.
[Chorus 1]
Am Dm Fmaj7
This ain't no technological breakdown, oh, no, this is the
E7 Am
road to hell.
[Solo]
Am Dm G C Cadd9/B Am Dm Fmaj7 E7 Am
[Verse 2]
Am C G
And as the roads jam up with credit, and there's nothing you
Fmaj7 E7
can do, it's all just bits of paper flying a way from you.
Am Dm
Oh, look out world take a good look, look who's down there,
Fmaj7 E7 Am
You must learn this lesson fast and learn it well.
[Chorus 2]
Am Dm Fmaj7
This ain't no upwardly mobile freeway, oh no, this is
E7 Fmaj7 E7 Fmaj7 E7 Am
the road, This is the road, this is the road to hell.
[Solo]
