Am Dm And I'm underneath the street light, the de-light of joy I know, Fmaj7 E7 Am Scared beyond be-lief, way down in the shadows. C G And the per-verted fear of violence, chokes the smile on every face, Fmaj7 E7 Common sense is ringing out the bells. [Chorus 1] Am Dm Fmaj7 This ain't no technological breakdown, oh, no, this is the E7 Am road to hell. [Solo] Am Dm G C Cadd9/B Am Dm Fmaj7 E7 Am [Verse 2] Am C G And as the roads jam up with credit, and there's nothing you Fmaj7 E7 can do, it's all just bits of paper flying a way from you. Am Dm Oh, look out world take a good look, look who's down there, Fmaj7 E7 Am You must learn this lesson fast and learn it well. [Chorus 2] Am Dm Fmaj7 This ain't no upwardly mobile freeway, oh no, this is E7 Fmaj7 E7 Fmaj7 E7 Am the road, This is the road, this is the road to hell. [Solo] Am Dm Fmaj7 E7 Am ************************************ | (n) Ghost note ************************************
