Intro: B5 F#5 E5 x4

B5   F#5        E5
Illinois, I could put you in a poem
Illinois, I could write you in a song
But the ink keeps bleeding through the paper
So now I must move on

B5   F#5        E5
Illinois, I am your favorite stepson
A Santa Claus Sears Tower in your sky
A poem for every band who stood before me
I just needed three more minutes of your time

A5  E5  G5 x2

I want to be a legend in my lifetime
A street sign of my name where I am from
Illinois, I really do love you madly
But you and I both know I don't belong

And I do thank you for the love you've shown me
Take care of my parents and my books
I'll send postcards from the great state of Texas
Forget me not, Thax Douglas

A5  E5  G5 
Forget me not
Forget me not - best wishes
Forget me not
Forget me not - best wishes

B5   F#5        E5
Illinois, I could put you in a poem
Illinois, I could write you in a song
But the ink keeps bleeding through the paper
So now I must move on

A5  E5  G5 
Forget me not
Forget me not - best wishes
Forget me not
Forget me not
