[Chorus]
B F#
Oh, Chicago knows
C#m
How small we are
How bright she
G#m E
Shines in the dark

Oh, and though I go
C#m
She's in my heart
G#m
Chicago holds me
E
When I fall apart
[Verse 1]
B F#
When you sit on the train are you hit by the way that the city lights around you
G#m E
Late at night when you ride do you look outside do you see it bright like I do
B F#
All the people the places the city faces they all take me in
G#m E
All around all the lost, all the found, all the everything in every instant
G#m E
[Chorus]
B F#
Oh, Chicago knows
C#m
How small we are
How bright she
G#m E
Shines in the dark

Oh, and though I go

She's in my heart
G#m
Chicago holds me
E
When I fall apart
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
B F#
Why do we try to be everything everybody tells us that we should be
G#m E
Why do I try to hide in the city lights from the people all around me
B F#
Well Chicago you know I can never be the one to change it all
G#m E
But as I walk down the street I can feel, I can need, I can fade into your walls
G#m E
[Chorus]

Oh, Chicago knows
