verse 1 

     G                      
Well heaven is nothingness  
                C             C/B    Am  
But we all been convinced otherwise  
                     D 
It ain't nothing but dreams for the blind  
               C               C/B    Am  D                 
The same way a child fears the night  
    G 
For memory cannot go  
                  C       C/B   Am     
Anyplace it don't already know  
                 D 
But I'll keep my eyes on the road  
                 C            C/B  Am 
A road that's as long as it's low  


Chorus 

    C           C/B   Am   
The low road is long  
                         D  
And those high roads are quick but they're wrong  
            C               C/B          Am 
For they'll chew you up and spit you out  
                 D  
Then when you're gone you're gone 
         C            G  
Itâ??s the low road for me 

verse 2 

        G   
There's vanity everywhere  
                 C            C/B      Am  
As we all try to climb greasy poles  
             D 
I'll wait my turn down below  
                 C          C/B   Am  D                 
And watch as the go-getters fall  
        G 
For the faster they pick you up  
                          C      C/B       Am     
Well they'll put you down just as quickly  
                  D             
But I've a longer strategic strategy  
                  C           C/B  Am  
I'll embrace an invisible destiny  

Chorus 

    C           C/B   Am   
The low road is long  
                         D  
And those high roads are quick but they're wrong  
            C               C/B           Am 
For they'll chew you up and spit you out  
                 D  
Then when you're gone you're gone 
         C            G  
Itâ??s the low road for me

verse 3 

    G 
For living ain't everything  
                   C         C/B  Am  
It's about time we all realised  
                     D         
This old world we consume like a fire  
                 C           C/B    Am  D 
We fuel with our future kids lives  
        G             
And the heart's no commodity  
                  C          C/B    Am               
But an ego that's empty with greed  
                 D                               
Values quantity over quality  
                           C                C/B    Am               
When more stuff's the last thing this world needs  

    C           C/B   Am   
The low road is long  
                         D  
And those high roads are quick but they're wrong  
            C               C/B           Am 
For they'll chew you up and spit you out  
                              D  
Then when you're gone you're gone 
         C            G  
Itâ??s the low road for me 
         C            G  
Itâ??s the low road for me 
         C            G  
Itâ??s the low road for me
