Spoon is an American indie rock band from Austin, Texas. The band was formed in late 1993 by lead singer/guitarist Britt Daniel and drummer Jim Eno. Current members also include: Eric Harvey (keyboard, guitar, percussion, backing vocals) and Rob Pope (bass, backing vocals - replaced Joshua Zarbo in 2007).

Notes:
- This is not really a strumming song. I play something like
what I've provided as "Pattern for verses", but make it your own.
- The intro tab combines the organ and guitar fill.
- There are some intentional F# mixed in there to match the melody.
- Possible substitutions: F#m for F#5, D for Dmaj7, Dm for Dm(maj7)
- The F#m(maj7) is a strange chord. Play it and the A/E with a
roll for a better sound than a strum.
- Studio recording ends with a slide from 1 to 7 on D string

Chicago .. b 4 the fall & it don't .. not at all and it
falls all around in the city hits .. ground and now
[Verse 1]
A5 C#5 F#5 F#m(maj7)
Now when she went to Chicago that night, she faced a wall
A5 C#5 F#5 F#m(maj7)
And she woke up outside with all those leaves in her mouth and felt the pall
A5 C#5 F# F#m(maj7)
And all night the rain came on down
A5 C#5 F#5 F#m(maj7)
But then she'd never been to Chicago at night before the fall
A/E B7
And it don't stop, not at all
F#5 F#m(maj7) A/E B7
It falls all around in the city, hits the ground
[Chorus]
D5 Bsus2
And now everybody's at disadvantage
Dmaj7 D Dm(maj7) Dm
Speaking with their second language
[Verse 2]
A5 C#5 F#5 F#m(maj7)
And she'd never been there before they went and set up the wall
A5 C#5 F#5 F#m(maj7)
And though nobody expected much from this reinvention
A5 C#5 F# F#m(maj7)
She still broke right down after all
A5 C#5 F#5 F#m(maj7)
Because she knew that it was all over and we'd hit a wall
A/E B7
And like the fall, this was all
F#5 F#m(maj7) A/E B7
Now it's all around - in the city, on the ground
[Chorus]
D5 Bsus2
And now everybody's at disadvantage
Dmaj7 D Dm(maj7) Dm F#5
Speaking with their second language
