Road to hell  Interpret/autor: Chris Rea 
 
Hm 
Well I'm standing by the river, 
Em 
But the water doesn't flow. 
G                   F# 
It boils with every poison - 
        Hm 
You can think of. 
 
Hm 
And I'm underneath the street light, 
Em 
The delight of joy I know, 
G                  F# 
Scared beyond belief, 
                Hm 
Way down in the shadows. 
 
D 
And the perverted fear of violence, 
A 
Chokes a smile on every face, 
G                         F# 
Common sense is ringing, out the bells. 
Hm                          Em 
This ain't no technological breakdown, 
G                  F#       Hm 
Oh-no, this is the road to hell.

D 
And as the roads jam up with credit, 
A 
And there's nothing you can do, 
G 
It's all just bits of paper, 
F# 
Flying a way from you. 
Hm 
Oh look out world take a good look, 
Em 
Look who's down there, 
G                          F#                  Hm 
You must learn this lesson fast, and learn it well. 
 
Hm                            Em 
This ain't no upwardly mobile freeway, 
G                  F# 
Oh-no, this is the road, 
G                 F# 
Said this is the road, 
G           F#        Hm 
This is the road ... to hell.
