[Intro]
Dm  Gm  A#  A  Dm  2x

[Verse]
Dm
Well I'm standing by the river,
        Gm
But the water doesn't flow.
   A#                   A
It boils with every poison -
        Dm
You can think of.


[Verse]

And I'm underneath the street light,
    Gm
The delight of joy I know,
A#               A
Scared beyond belief,
                Dm
Way down in the shadows.


[Chorus]
        F
And the perverted fear of violence,
         C
Chokes a smile on every face,
A#                                A
Common sense is ringing, out the bells.
Dm                          Gm
This ain't no technological breakdown,
   A#               A       Dm
Oh-no, this is the road to hell.


[Solo]
Dm   Gm   C    F   F
Dm   Gm   A#    A   Dm


[Verse]
           F
And as the roads jam up with credit,
            C
And there's nothing you can do,
A#
It's all just bits of paper,
A
Flying a way from you.
Dm
Oh look out world take a good look,
Gm
Look who's down there,
A#                                A            Dm
You must learn this lesson fast, and learn it well.


[Outro]
Dm                            Gm
This ain't no upwardly mobile freeway,
   A#               A
Oh-no, this is the road,
A#           A
This is the road,
A#           A        Dm
This is the road ... to hell.

Dm  Gm  A#  A  Dm  4x
