Chords for Sarah Vaughan - Detour Ahead (Live @ the London House) Mercury Records 1958

_ [Bbm] _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Db] _ _
[Ab] _ _ I'm going to sing a song called Smooth Road.
Smooth road, _ _
_ _ [Db] _ _ clear day.
_ _ _ But [Bbm] why am _ [A] _ [Bbm] I the only [Eb] one traveling this way?
_ [Ab] _ _ How [Ebm] strange the [Db] road to love should be [Ab] so [E] _ easy.
_ [Ab] _ _ _
Can there be [Fm] a detour _
_ [A] _ ahead?
_ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ So, _
[Eb] _ _ [Abm] _ _ _ _ [Db] _
before [Bb] you crash and break [Eb] your [Fm] heart, _ [Bbm] gullible clown.
[Bb] _ _ [Ab]
You [C] fool, _ [Fm] you're headed in the [Ab] wrong _ _ [E] _ direction. _
[Fm] _ _ Can't [Db] you see the [Eb] detour [Ab] _ ahead?
_ _ _ [G] _
[C] The farther [Eb] _ you [C] travel, _ [Abm] _ the harder to [Db] unravel _ [C] the web.
[Dbm] _ _ _
[A] [Dm] She spins around you, [F] _
_ [Cm] _ _ turn back [G] while there's [Db] time.
Can't you see the [Abm] danger sign?
[C] _ Soft [G] _ shoulders _
[F] _ [Bbm] [Bb] surround you.
_ _ _ [Eb] _
_ [Ab] Smooth [Cm] road, _ [Ab] _ _
_ clear [Db] night. _ _ _ _
_ _ [Cm] Oh, lucky [Bbm] me that [Eb]
suddenly [Fm] _ I _ [Eb] saw the light.
[Ab] _ _ [Ebm] I'm turning back away [Ab] [D] from [Ab] all that [E] trouble.
_ _ _ [Ab] Smooth road, _ [Ab] _
_ _ [Db] smooth road, _ _
_ [Bb] no detour.
Oh, _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ hey. _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _

[Bb] _ [Eb] _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
[G] _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ farther you travel, [Ab] _ _ _ [Abm] the harder [Db] you _ [C] unravel the web.
[A] _ _
She [Dm] spins around you, [Abm] _
_ [Cm] _ _ turn back while there's time.
[Db] _ _ Can't you see the danger _ [C] sign?
Soft _ shoulders _
[B] [Bbm] surround you. _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ Smooth _ road, _ _
[Db] _ clear [Abm] night.
_ _ [Db] _
_ Oh, lucky [Bbm] me that [Eb] suddenly [Bbm] _ _ _ [Ab] I saw the light. _
I'm turning back [Fm] away _
[Ab] from all [E] that trouble. _ _
_ [Ab] _ Smooth [Eb] road, [Fm] _ _ _
[Db] _ _ smooth _ road, _ _ no [A] detour. _ Oh, _ _ _ _ [Ab] hey. _ _
