Chords

This is the first part of the song, or the intro if you listen to the full version. The timing is quite odd, and it doesn't really work just playing chords but you can find own way of doing it, escpecially if you add some really bluesy vocals it sounds neat.
Am
Stood still on a highway

        E7
I saw a woman

                    Am
By the side of the road
With a face that I knew like my own
                 E7
Reflected in my window

          Am
Well she walked up to my quarterlight

        Dm
And she bent down real slow

          Am        E7
A fearful pressure paralysed me

      Am
In my shadow

                           E7     Am
She said "Son, what are you doing here?

                                      E7
My fear for you has turned me in my grave"

        Am
I said "Mama, I come to the valley of the rich

Dm
Myself to sell"

          Am                E7     Am            E7
She said "Son, this is the road to Hell"

         Am
On your journey 'cross the wilderness

          Dm
From the desert to the well

          Am                    E7                Am
You have strayed upon the motorway to Hell
