Stone of SisyphusChicago

Tomorrow is teasing me
Time seems to run away from the future
But this could be that lucky day

A dream is make believe until
Blood, sweat, and tears turn faith to will
It's gonna take some miracle man
To show there's a way

I'm gonna take the Stone of Sisyphus
I'm gonna roll it back to you
Building a wall of stone

Sometimes you know what's right
Sometimes wrong is better than nothing
They cast a stone so heavy to turn

I believe in a love so true
I believe you get what's coming to you
We get so tired of living a dream
For some other day

I'm gonna take the Stone of Sisyphus
I'm gonna roll it back to you
Wall of stone around the two of us
That only angels can break through

Looks like it's another of those lonely nights
Will we always be alone
That's never kept me from you
That's never stopped me from the fight

I'm gonna take the Stone of Sisyphus
I'm gonna roll it back to you
I'll take the Stone of Sisyphus
Wall of stone around the two of us
I'm gonna roll it back to you

Chicago

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.
