Intro:

C G Am7  F  C G


Verse 1:
         C                     G
Now this spruce is filled with sweat
         Am7
And this rosewood with blood
           F                                 C             G

If I could cash it in for something, babe, I promise you I would
      C                 G                  Am7
If my heart is in these songs, then what's left in my chest?
           F                             C              G
Other than that cold from the east, what else do I have left?

Chorus:
   F                                 C
And if the North knows me, guess I'm doing alright
G               Gdim               Am7           G   F
Takes more than want to keep these songs I sing alive
                            C                 G
And I hope they think these words mean plenty
                        Am7                 G           C
I just hope that they remember me, remember me in Windy City


Verse 2:
C                   G                  Am7
If a Southern man's music survives the North, well then surely
      F                              C              G
I can let go of these "not yet"s and drop all these worries
               C         G                Am7
'Cause there's prices to pay, and there's people yet to pay 'em
      F                               C                G
And I hope I stand on by, babe, and I hope it's not me paying
G
'Cause


Chorus:
F                                 C
 If the North knows me, guess I'm doing alright
G               G#dim              Am7           G   F
Takes more than want to keep these songs I sing alive
                            C                 G
And I hope they think these words mean plenty
                        Am7                 G           F
I just hope that they remember me, remember me in Windy City

Out-Chorus:
F                                 C
 If the North knows me, guess I'm doing alright
G                                  Am7           G   F
Takes more than want to keep these songs I sing alive
                            C                 G
And I hope they think these words mean plenty
                        Am7                 G           C
I just hope that they remember me, remember me in Windy City
