[Verse 1: Jason Scheff]
The feeling was clear
Clear as a blue sky on a sunny day
Everything was you ooh ooh
Because no one made me feel
The way I felt with you, whoa oh
Call on me 'cause

[Chorus: All]
I love you
You know I do
You love me too

[Verse 2: Jason Scheff]
Then came a change
When I said I would soon be leaving you
Nothing else to do ooh ooh
But please remember I never lose the thought of you
Call on me ’cause

[Chorus: All]
I love you
You know I do
You love me too

[Interlude: Jason Scheff]
Oh I, yeah yeah

[Verse 3: Jason Scheff, with bandmates]
You've got to find
Someone else to somehow take my place
Share his life with you ooh ooh
But if you need a friend
You can always count on me
Count on me 'cause

[Chorus: All]
I love you
You know I do
You love me too ooh ooh

[Outro: All]
You can count on me, oh
You can count on me
You can count on me, baby
You can count on me
You can count on me, oh
You can count on me
You can count on me, baby
You can count on me
You can count on me, oh
You can count on me
You can count on me, baby
You can count on me
You can count on me, oh
You can count on me

Chicago is a rock band hailing from the Illinois city of the same name. With its multitude of certified gold and platinum hits, the band has had enough longevity to last for over fifty years.

Chicago was formed on February 15, 1967, between keyboardist/singer Robert Lamm, trumpeter Lee Loughnane, saxophonist Walter Parazaider, drummer Danny Seraphine, guitarist Terry Kath, and trombonist James Pankow. The group called themselves “The Big Thing,” and played Top 40 hits in nightclubs in Chicago. In 1968, the band relocated to Los Angles, and changed their name to Chicago Transit Authority. They gained massive amounts of exposure to famous musicians of the time by regularly playing at the Whiskey A Go Go nightclub. In 1969, they released a self-titled album which peaked at No. 17 on the Billboard Hot 200 chart. The next year, the band shortened their name to “Chicago” to avoid a lawsuit from the actual company of the same name.

The band has released a plethora of albums, most of them titled Chicago enumerated with Roman numerals. The band changed its sound in the late 70s and 80s following the death of Terry Kath. Since then, the band has still carried on a legacy for the decades following, but has slowed the release of original music to a trickle.
