Road To Hell

Am                             Em                     Am
Stood still on a highway I saw a woman by the side of the road

                                                        Em
With a face that I knew like my own, reflected in my window

          Am                                         Dm
Well, she walked up to my quarter light and she bent down real slow

              Am             Em          Am
A fearful pressure paralysed me in my shadows

          Am                Em    Am
She said: Son, what are you doing here?

                    Am              Em
My fear for you has turned me in my grave

        Am                                      Dm
I said: Mama, I come to the valley of the rich, myself to sell

Am                           Em      Am  Am
  She said: Son, this is the road to hell

Am Em Am Em
        Am                                     Dm
On your journey 'cross the wilderness from the desert to the well

         Am                 Em            Am Am
You have strayed upon the motorway to hell

         Am
Well I'm standing by a river,

        Dm
But the water doesn't flow

   F
It boils with every poison

E        Am
 You can think of

        Am
And I'm underneath the streetlight

      Dm
The delight of joy I know

F
 Scared beyond belief,

E                   Am
 Way down in the shadows

           C
And the perverted fear of violance

         G
Chokes a smile on every face

    F
And common sense is ringing,

        E
Out the bells

Am                                     Dm
  This ain't no technological breakdown

      F                E       Am
Oh no, this is the road to hell

Am Dm G C
Bm Am Dm F
E Am
           C
And as the road jam up with credit,

            G
And there's nothing you can do,

     F
It's all just bits of paper

   E
Flying away from you

   Am
Oh look out world take a good look,

           Dm
Look who's down there,

              F
You must learn this lesson fast

E             Am
 and learn it well

Am                                  Dm
  This ain't no upwardly mobile freeway,

      F                E
Oh no, this is the road

F
 This is the road

E F                E       Am
   This is the road to hell
