[Dm] [F]
[E] [Am]
Well I stand by a river, but [Dm] the water doesn't flow.
[F] It boils with every [E] poison you [Am] can think of.
And I'm underneath the streetlight, a [Dm]
delight and joy I know.
[F]
Scared beyond [E] belief, we're down [Am] in the shadows.
And [C] a perverted fear of violence, a [G] jokeless smile on every face.
[F]
Uncommon senses ring it out [E]
loud.
[Am]
This ain't no technological [Dm]
breakdown.
[F] Oh no, this is [E] the road [Am] to hell.
