[Intro]
Em Am C B Em 2x
[Verse]
Em
Well I'm standing by the river,
Am
But the water doesn't flow.
C B
It boils with every poison -
Em
You can think of.
[Verse]
And I'm underneath the street light,
Am
The delight of joy I know,
C B
Scared beyond belief,
Em
Way down in the shadows.
[Chorus]
G
And the perverted fear of violence,
D
Chokes a smile on every face,
C B
Common sense is ringing, out the bells.
Em Am
This ain't no technological breakdown,
C B Em
Oh-no, this is the road to hell.
[Solo]
Em Am D G G
Em Am C B Em
[Verse]
G
And as the roads jam up with credit,
D
And there's nothing you can do,
C
It's all just bits of paper,
B
Flying a way from you.
Em
Oh look out world take a good look,
Am
Look who's down there,
C B Em
You must learn this lesson fast, and learn it well.
[Outro]
Em Am
This ain't no upwardly mobile freeway,
C B
Oh-no, this is the road,
C B
This is the road,
C B Em
This is the road ... to hell.
