Intro: A7 A7sus2 A7sus4 A7
A7 A7sus2 A7sus4 A7
I'm sittin' in Chicago on the thirtieth floor
D A7 A7sus2 A7sus4 A7
Lookin' down on the city below
A7sus2 A7sus4 A7
My heart is cold as the wind through the streets
D A7 A7sus2 A7sus4 A7
And outside it's starting to snow
A7 A7sus2 A7sus4 A7
Weeks ago I left you in sunny Caroline
D A7 A7sus2 A7sus4 A7
Sittin' in our home in the pines
A7sus2 A7sus4 A7
I got a job to do that takes me away from you
D A7 A7sus2 A7sus4
But your love still remains on my mind
A7 A
I'm in love with that girl from that Roebuck town
D A
Since I met her she's made my life so sound
D A
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine
G D A7 A7sus2 A7su4
She's the best thing that I'll ever find
A7 A7sus2
The city lights have gone
A7sus4 A7
And the night has brought a storm
D A7 A7sus2 A7sus4 A7
And soon I'll be headin' home to you
A7sus2
I can taste your wine
A7sus4 A7
Though it's been a long,long time
D A7 A7sus2 A7sus4 A7
No more will I have the Chicago blues
D A
I'm in love with that girl from that Roebuck town
D A
Since I met her she's made my life so sound
D A
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine
G D A7 A7sus2 A7sus4 A7
She's the best thing that I'll ever find
G D A
Look look around there's snow on the ground
G D A
What a cold hard life that I've known
G D A
But my love still glows like the city below
G D A7 A7sus2 A7sus4
Because of all the love she's shown
A7 A7sus2
I'm on a southbound train
A7sus4 A7
Takin' me away from this snow
D A7 A7sus2 A7sus4
Takin' me where I really want to go
A7 A7sus2 A7sus4 A7
Out of these chilly winds and havin' no friends
D A7 A7sus2
A7sus4
I need the warmth of your sweet lovin' soul
A7 D A
I'm in love with that girl from that Roebuck town
D A
Since I met her she's made my life so sound
D A
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine
G D A7 A7sus2 A7sus4
She's the best thing that I'll ever find
A7 A7sus2 A7sus4 A7 A7 A7sus2 A7sus4 A7
Got the windy city blues
