[Verse 1]
Am Dm
Well, I'm standing by a river, but the water doesn't flow
F E7 Am
It boils with every poison you can think of
Am Dm
And I'm underneath the street light, the light of joy I know
F E7 Am
Scared beyond belief, way down in the shadows
[Bridge]
C
And the perverted fear of violence
G
Chokes the smile on every face
F E7
Common sense is ringing out the bells
|[Chorus]
|Am Dm
| This ain't no technological breakdown
| F E7 Am
|Oh no, this is the road to hell (Am)

C
And all the roads jam up with credit
G
And there's nothing you can do
F E7
It's all just bits of paper, flying away from you
Am Dm
Oh, look out world, take a good look, what goes down here
F E7
You must learn this lesson fast, and learn it well (Am)
|[Chorus]
|Am Dm
| This ain't no upwardly mobile freeway
| F E7
|Oh no, this is the road
|F E7
| This is the road
|F E7 Am
| This is the road ... to hell (Am)
