[Cm] [Ab] Smooth road, [Abm] clear day, but [Ab] why am [Cm] I [Bbm] the only one traveling this [Eb] way?
[Ab] How [Ebm]
strange [Ab] the road to [Db] love [E] should be [Gb] so easy.
[Ab] Can there [F] be a [Bbm] detour ahead?
[Ab] Wake [Eb] up, [Gb] slow [Abm]
down, [Bb] before you [Bb] crash and break [F] your [Bbm] heart, gullible [Eb] clown.
[Ebm] You hold your [Ab] head in [Db] the wrong [E] direction, [Bbm] [Bb] can't you see the [Eb] detour [Ab] ahead?
[Eb]
The [Cm] farther you [G] travel, [Dm] the harder to [G]
unravel [C] the [G] web [Em] [Dm] he spins around [G] you.
[Cm] Turn back while there's time, [Dm] can't you see the [G] danger [Db] sign?
[C] Soft shoulders [Bbm] surround [Db] you.
[Eb] Smooth road, [Ab] [Ebm] clear [Abm] night, [Db] oh lucky [Cm] me that [Bbm]
suddenly [F] [Bbm] I saw [Eb]
the light.
I'm [Ebm] turning [Ab] back [Db] away from [E] all this [Bb] trouble.
[Ab] Smooth [F] road, [E] smooth [Bb]
road, [Cm] no [Fm] detour [Bbm]
[Eb] [Ab] ahead.
[D]
[G] [Cm] The farther you travel, [D] the harder [G] to [Db] unravel [C] the web [Dm] he spins around [G]
you.
[Abm] [Cm] Turn back while [A] there's time, [D] can't you see the [Db] danger sign?
[C] Soft shoulders
[Bbm] surround you.
[Em] [Eb] Smooth road, [Ab] [Db] clear [Abm]
night, [Bb] oh lucky me [Bbm]
[Ab] that [Bbm] suddenly I [Eb] saw the light.
I'm [Ebm]
turning [Ab] back [Db] away from [E] all this [Bb] trouble.
[Cm] Smooth road, [Dbm] smooth [B] road, [Ab] no [Fm] detour [Bbm]
[A] [Ab] [Bb] ahead.
