Am
[Verse 1]
AmStood still on a highway I saw Ema woman by the side of Amthe road
With a face that I knew like my own, reflected in my winEmdow
Well, she Amwalked up to my quarter light and she bent Dmdown real slow
A fearful presAmsure paralysed Emme in my shaAmdows
She said: AmSon, what are you Emdoing Amhere?
My fear for you has Amturned me in my Emgrave
[Verse 2]
I said: AmMama, I come to the valley of the rich, Dmmyself to sell
Am She said: Son, this is the Emroad to Amhell Am

[Verse 1]
Well I'm Amstanding by a river,
But the Dmwater doesn't flow
It Fboils with every poison
E You can Amthink of
And I'm Amunderneath the streetlight
The deDmlight of joy I know
F Scared beyond belief,
E Way down in the shaAmdows
[Chorus]
And the perCverted fear of violance
Chokes a Gsmile on every face
And Fcommon sense is ringing,
Out the Ebells
Am This ain't no technological breakdown Dm
Oh no,F this is the roadE to hell Am

And as the Croad jam up with credit,
And there's Gnothing you can do,
It's Fall just bits of paper
FlyEing away from you
Oh Amlook out world take a good look,
Look who's Dmdown there,
You must learnF this lesson fast
E and learn it Amwell
Am This ain't no upwardly mobile freeDmway,
Oh no,F this is the road E

E F This is the roadE to hell Am
