Biography:
Chicago is an American rock band formed in 1967 in Chicago, Illinois. The self-described "rock and roll band with horns" began as a politically charged, sometimes experimental, rock band and later moved to a predominantly softer sound, generating several hit ballads. They had a steady stream of hits throughout the 1970s and 1980s. Second only to The Beach Boys in Billboard singles and albums chart success among American bands, Chicago is one of the longest-running and most successful rock groups in history.

[Verse]
Dm7 Em7
I saw her once before
Ebmaj7 Fmaj7
She didn't turn me on
Bbmaj7 Dm7
One night she stopped to talk
Asus2 Am
To pass the time
Dm7 Em7
And then I saw her eyes
Ebmaj7 Fmaj7
Her softly smiling glow
Bbmaj7 Dm7 Asus2 Am
We sat and talked all night at Byblos
[Chorus]
Cmaj7
She talked of feelings
Fmaj7
That I knew were true
Dm7
She painted me a picture
Bm7 Esus2
Using every shade of blue
Am7 Fmaj7
It was light with laughter
Cmaj7 Dm7
At times it made me cry
Bbmaj7 Ebmaj7 Bm7 Esus2 Am7 Cm7
And now I'll never know just why I didn't ever try to hold her
Am7 Cm7
To squeeze her
Am7 Cm7 Am7 Cm7 Dbm7
To kiss her all night long, I never tried to please her
[Verse]
Dm7 Em7
Then, soon she had to go
Ebmaj7 Fmaj7
I sat there all alone
Bbmaj7 Dm7
And thought of things she said
Asus2 Am
The whole day through
Dm7 Em7
And then I realized
Ebmaj7 Fmaj7
I never took the time
Bbmaj7 Dm7
To find out where she lived
Asus2 Am
Or where to call
[Chorus]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
I thought that I would see her the next night
Dm7 Bm7 Esus2
Anticipating how I'd set myself right
Am7 Fmaj7
Then, I went back to Byblos
Cmaj7 Dm7
I sat there and waited
Bbmaj7 Ebmaj7
Feeling just a little nervous
Bm7 Esus2
And a little frustrated
Am7 Cm7
Then, soon, in she came
Am7 Cm7
Looking just the same
Am7 Cm7
Ooh, I could hardly wait to take her
Am7 Cm7
Far from the game

Ebmaj7 Abmaj7
Then a person came in to the club
Ebmaj7 Abmaj7
That I had to speak to
Ebmaj7 Abmaj7
I explained the situation to her
Ebmaj7 Abmaj7
And I thought she understood
Ebmaj7
But I guess she thought
Abmaj7
I was jiving her around
Ebmaj7
Because when I looked for her
Abmaj7 Bbmaj7
This is what I found
Bmaj7 Gbmaj7 Dbmaj7 Bbmaj7
She was rapping with a real good friend of mine
Bmaj7 Gbmaj7 Dbmaj7 Bbmaj7
He was happening, I guess it was his time
Bmaj7 Gbmaj7
I really couldn't blame him
Dbmaj7 Bbmaj7
Because he was sad and lonely too
Bmaj7 Gbmaj7
But just talking to her did me so much good
Dbmaj7
I knew she'd do him good too
[Chorus]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Then I went home and I got it on
Dm7
Sat down to write these words
Bm7 Esus2
When I was finally alone
Am7 Fmaj7
And then, about halfway through
Cmaj7 Dm7
I wondered if someone knew
Bbmaj7 Ebmaj7
Where she was so I could give her a call
Bm7 Esus2
And I found out that she was right down the hall

But that's ok
Ebmaj7 Fmaj7
I'll just wait for the day
Bbmaj7 Dm7
When I can see her again
Asus2 Am
And spend some time
