CHICAGO (Nash)

​

So your brother's bound and gagged 

And they've chained him to a chair

Won't you please come to Chicago just to sing

In a land that's known as freedom how can such a thing be fair

Won't you please come to Chicago for the help that we can bring

We can change the world rearrange the world

It's dying - to get better

Politicians sit yourselves down, there's nothing for you here

Won't you please come to Chicago for a ride

Don't ask jack to help you 'cause he'll turn the other ear

Won't you please come to Chicago or else join the other side

We can change the world rearrange the world

It's dying - if you believe in justice

Dying - and if you believe in freedom

Dying - let a man live his own life

Dying - rules and regulations, who needs them open up the door

Somehow people must be free I hope the day comes soon

Won't you please come to Chicago show your face

From the bottom of the ocean to the mountains of the moon

Won't you please come to Chicago no one else can take your place

We can change the world rearrange the world

It's dying - if you believe in justice

Dying - and if you believe in freedom

Dying - let a man live his own life

Dying - rules and regulations, who needs them open up the door.

​

So his brother, bound and gagged 

And they have chained to a chair 

I don't know, please come to Chicago to sing 

In a land known as freedom how can a thing be fair

You won't like coming to Chicago because of the help we can provide 

We can change the world reorganize the world 

It is dying - to improve 

Politicians feel you, there is nothing for you 

Aren't you going to like coming to Chicago for a ride 

Don't ask Jack to help you 'cause he will turn the other ear 

Won't you like to come to Chicago, or else join the other side 

We can change the world reorganize the world 

He is dying - if you believe in justice 

Die - and if you believe in freedom 

Dying - allows a man to live his own life 

Die - the rules and regulations, who needs them to open the door 

Somehow people must be free I hope the day before 

Won't you like coming to Chicago show your fas 

From the bottom of the sea to the mountains of the moon 

You won't like coming to Chicago, no one else can take your place 

We can change the world reorganize the world 

He is dying - if you believe in justice 

Die - and if you believe in freedom 

Dying - allows a man to live his own life 

Die - the rules and regulations, which needs them to open the door.
