Road Of Good Intentions chords by John Gorka

Chords with lyrics

• Capo on 4th

INTRO:

C majorC FF G+G


     FF   G+G   C majorC
There's addition and subtraction
   FF   G+G C majorC
But division overall
   FF   G+G   FF
Hope, once in fluid motion
  Dm7Dm7    G+G
Has slowed behind a crawl
    FF G+G   C majorC
Oh, the images are strong now
  FF    G+G   C majorC
The words are pretty good
         FF   G+G   FF
But there's more fiction out of Washington
   Dm7Dm7   G+G
Than out of Hollywood

CHORUS:
    FF   G+G   C majorC
On the road of good intentions
     FF  G+G   A minorAm  FF
All gets justified to hell
            C majorC   FF
The price revealed in stories
     G+G     C majorC
Too short, too sad to tell


INTERLUDE: FF G+G C majorC FF G+G
    FF    GC
Is this permanent improvement
    FF   G+G  C majorC
Through abbreviated lives
  FF   G+G   FF
Or another tragic venture
     Dm7Dm7    G+G
Shocking when the bill arrives?
    FF   G+G    C majorC
By the rubble where the house was
     FF   G+G   C majorC
There are markers in the dirt
     FF   G+G   FF
Children with no need of freedom
     Dm7Dm7   G+G
They can no longer be hurt

CHORUS:
    FF   G+G   C majorC
On the road of good intentions
     FF  G+G   A minorAm  FF
All gets justified to hell
            C majorC   FF
The price revealed in stories
     G+G     C majorC
Too short, too sad to tell


INTERLUDE: FF G+G C majorC FF G+G
    FF    G+G    C majorC
Oh, the soldiers and their families
   FF    G+G    C majorC
With life and limb they pay
     FF    G+G    FF
While the ones who sent them marching
    Dm7Dm7     G+G
Get to dance the night away
     FF    G+G   C majorC
I always come back to the soldiers
      FF   G+G  C majorC
With their courage and ideals
        FF   G+G   FF
I've seen them smoking in the airport
      Dm7Dm7   G+G
There's no telling how it feels


CHORUS:
    FF   G+G   C majorC
On the road of good intentions
     FF  G+G   A minorAm  FF
All gets justified to hell
            C majorC   FF
The price revealed in stories
     G+G     C majorC
Too short, too sad to tell


OUTRO: FF G+G C majorC
