Intro

 I'm sittin' in Chicago on the thirtieth floor

 Lookin' down on the city below

 My heart is cold as the wind through the streets

 And outside it's starting to snow

 Weeks ago I left you in sunny Caroline

 Sittin' in our home in the pines

 I got a job to do that takes me away from you

 But your love still remains on my mind

I'm in love with that girl from that Roebuck town

 Since I met her she's made my life so sound

 She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine

 She's the best thing that I'll ever find

 The city lights have gone

 And the night has brought a storm

 And soon I'll be headin' home to you

 I can taste your wine

 Though it's been a long,long time

 No more will I have the Chicago blues

 I'm in love with that girl from that Roebuck town

 Since I met her she's made my life so sound

 She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine

 She's the best thing that I'll ever find

 Look look around there's snow on the ground

 What a cold hard life that I've known

 But my love still glows like the city below

 Because of all the love she's shown

 I'm on a southbound train

 Takin' me away from this snow

 Takin' me where I really want to go

Out of these chilly winds and havin' no friends

I need the warmth of your sweet lovin' soul

I'm in love with that girl from that Roebuck town

 Since I met her she's made my life so sound

 She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine

 She's the best thing that I'll ever find

Got the windy city blues
