Road to Hell en

Road to hell  Interpret/autor: Chris Rea 
 
Gm 
Well I'm standing by the river, 
Cm 
But the water doesn't flow. 
Eb                   D 
It boils with every poison - 
        Gm 
You can think of. 
 
Gm 
And I'm underneath the street light, 
Cm 
The delight of joy I know, 
Eb                  D 
Scared beyond belief, 
                Gm 
Way down in the shadows. 
 
Bb 
And the perverted fear of violence, 
F 
Chokes a smile on every face, 
Eb                         D 
Common sense is ringing, out the bells. 
Gm                          Cm 
This ain't no technological breakdown, 
Eb                  D       Gm 
Oh-no, this is the road to hell. 
 
Slide Solo 
 
Bb 
And as the roads jam up with credit, 
F 
And there's nothing you can do, 
Eb 
It's all just bits of paper, 
D 
Flying a way from you. 
Gm 
Oh look out world take a good look, 
Cm 
Look who's down there, 
Eb                          D                  Gm 
You must learn this lesson fast, and learn it well. 
 
Gm                            Cm 
This ain't no upwardly mobile freeway, 
Eb                  D 
Oh-no, this is the road, 
Eb                 D 
Said this is the road, 
Eb           D        Gm 
This is the road ... to hell.
