Intro:  A7sus2  


               A7sus2             
I'm sittin' in Chicago on the thirtieth floor

                           A7sus2  
Lookin' down on the city below

            A7sus2                    
My heart is cold as the wind through the streets

                              A7sus2  
And outside it's starting to snow

         A7sus2            
Weeks ago I left you in sunny Caroline

                            A7sus2  
Sittin' in our home in the pines

      A7sus2               
I got a job to do that takes me away from you

                                   A7sus2 
But your love still remains on my mind

                                   
I'm in love with that girl from that Roebuck town

                              
Since I met her she's made my life so sound

                                   
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine

                                    A7sus2 A7su4
She's the best thing that I'll ever find

                  A7sus2
The city lights have gone

                        
And the night has brought a storm

                                  A7sus2  
And soon I'll be headin' home to you

                 A7sus2
I can taste your wine

                        
Though it's been a long,long time

                                 A7sus2  
No more will I have the Chicago blues

                                   
I'm in love with that girl from that Roebuck town

                              
Since I met her she's made my life so sound

                                    
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine

                                  A7sus2  
She's the best thing that I'll ever find

                         
Look look around there's snow on the ground

                                
What a cold hard life that I've known

                                
But my love still glows like the city below

                              A7sus2 
Because of all the love she's shown

                 A7sus2
I'm on a southbound train

                    
Takin' me away from this snow

                                 A7sus2 
Takin' me where I really want to go

                  A7sus2          
Out of these chilly winds and havin' no friends

                                       A7sus2

I need the warmth of your sweet lovin' soul

                                 
I'm in love with that girl from that Roebuck town

                             
Since I met her she's made my life so sound

                                   
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine

                                    A7sus2 
She's the best thing that I'll ever find

      A7sus2          A7sus2 

Got the windy city blues
