All the YearsChicago

You ask me what I think
I tell you you ignore it
The reasons for it make me crazy
You ask me what is right
Huh, you never hear it
You're never nowhere near it, baby

I spent my life believing
It would not end this way

All the years we wasted
All the years we tried
All the restless hours
All the times we cried

You ask me what I want
I got no answer
I know I'm only dancing faster
So now we're stuck with us
With you and all your stories but
Who's the fool and who's the liar

I spent my life believing
It would not end this way

All the years we wasted
All the years we tried
All the restless hours
All the times we cried

All the years we gambled
All the years you lied
All the hopeless dreamers
All the dreams that died

All the years we wasted
All the years we tried
All the restless hours
All the times we cried

All the years we gambled
All the years you lied
All the hopeless dreamers
All the dreams
All the dreams that died

All the years we wasted
All the years we tried
All the restless hours
All the times we cried

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.
