Chicago

[Intro]
(That's right, yeah!)

[Verse 1]
Flying so high
Feeling so low
Fill my empty heart
Don't say no
Can I get through this night
With some loving to show

[Chorus]
Won't you show me the way to go
I don't know

[Verse 2]
Won't you open your eyes
I know you really care
You see these games you play
They're just not fair
After all the good times
And secrets we've shared

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
I wanna take my place
I wanna take my place
I wanna take my place with the loved ones

[Verse 3]
Well I still can't see how things were meant to be
Love me even for one day I'll treat you like a lady
In my heart you'll stay forever you know
Won't you show me the way to go
I don't know

[Outro]
Marching into your heart
Marching into your heart
Marching into your heart
Yeah yeah

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.
