Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
The seeds are [Em]planted here
But they won't grow
We won't have to say goodbye
If we all go
Maybe things will be better in Chicago

[Verse 2]
To leave [Em]all we've ever known
For a place we've never seen

[Verse 3]
Maybe things will be better in Chicago
[Em]
Well It's brave for us to stay
Even braver to go
Wherever she goes I go

[Verse 4]
Maybe things will be better in Chicago
[Em]
What we need the lord will give us
All we want we carry with us
You know where I can be found
Where the rainbow hits the ground
I'm not alone
I'm not afraid
'Cause this bird has flown
from his cage
There's so much magic we have known
On this sapphire we call home
With my coat and my hat
I say goodbye to all that

[Verse 5]
Maybe [Em]things will be better in Chicago
Maybe things will be better in Chicago
All aboard

[Outro 1]
All aboard
[Em]
