Chords with lyrics

Intro: A9A9 G+G

 A9A9     G+G             A9A9    G+G
I come from a land where the winters are long and cold
     A9A9         G+G      A9A9      G+G
Where the ice crawls over the lake and the strong winds blow
   A9A9          A9A9      G+G
Where old men are tough and tell tales of old
    A9A9          G+G      A9A9     G+G
A augmentedA sore back for a hard day's work used to feed their souls

  A9A9 G+G     A9A9        G+G   A9A9 G+G     A9A9  G+G
Chicago, I never knew I'd miss you til I left and came back
  A9A9 G+G     A9A9        G+G        A9A9 G+G  A9A9  G+G
Chicago, I never knew how much I'd miss you til I left and came back

  A9A9   G+G      A9A9   G+G
My father was a steel working man
    A9A9        G+G        A9A9         G+G
With an old style in his hand he used to stomp across these lands
  A9A9     G+G         A9A9    G+G
We buried him here between Roosevelt and 110
A9A9        G+G      A9A9   G+G
I still visit his grave every now and then

  A9A9 G+G     A9A9        G+G   A9A9 G+G     A9A9  G+G
Chicago, I never knew I'd miss you til I left and came back
  A9A9 G+G     A9A9        G+G        A9A9 G+G  A9A9  G+G
Chicago, I never knew how much I'd miss you til I left and came back

     A9A9   G+G          A9A9     G+G
I used to lay my head where kings and stones held ground
  A9A9        G+G         A9A9       G+G
The warring in these streets, it still makes an awful sound
A9A9   G+G      A9A9     G+G
Innocence wouldn't stray their rounds
A9A9        G+G       A9A9       G+G
Bullets broke the windows as our bodies hit the ground

  A9A9 G+G     A9A9        G+G   A9A9 G+G     A9A9  G+G
Chicago, I never knew I'd miss you til I left and came back
  A9A9 G+G     A9A9        G+G        A9A9 G+G  A9A9  G+G
Chicago, I never knew how much I'd miss you til I left and came back

     A9A9  G+G    A9A9     G+G
It took a while to understand these facts
   A9A9      G+G       A9A9      G+G
That made me who I am and gave me insight to react
   A9A9  G+G       A9A9    G+G
Now I stand proud in being from this land
  A9A9      G+G        A9A9      G+G
And maybe you can learn from my experience firsthand

  A9A9 G+G     A9A9        G+G   A9A9 G+G     A9A9  G+G
Chicago, I never knew I'd miss you til I left and came back
  A9A9 G+G     A9A9        G+G        A9A9 G+G  A9A9  G+G
Chicago, I never knew how much I'd miss you til I left and came back

  A9A9 G+G A9A9 G+G

  A9A9 G+G A9A9 G+G

  A9A9 G+G A9A9 G+G
