[Intro]
C#m  F#m  A  G#  C#m  2x

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


[Verse]

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


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


[Solo]
C#m   F#m   B    E   E
C#m   F#m   A    G#   C#m


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


[Outro]
C#m                            F#m
This ain't no upwardly mobile freeway,
   A               G#
Oh-no, this is the road,
A           G#
This is the road,
A           G#        C#m
This is the road ... to hell.
