Dear Chicago

You'll never guess

You know the girl you said I'd meet some day

Well I got something to confess
                    Fmaj7  
She picked me up on Friday

Asked me if she reminded me of you
       C
I just laughed and lit a cigarette

Said that's impossible to do
                 Fmaj7
Life's gotten simple since

And it fluctuates so much
C
Happy and sad and back again

Without crying out to much
                Fmaj7
Think about you all the time

It's strange and hard to deal
                C
Think about you lying there

Those blankets lie so still
             Am
Nothing breathes here in the cold

Nothing moves or even smiles
                          Fmaj7
I've been thinking some of suicide

But theres bars out here for miles
               Am         Am/G (Am with 4th finger on E string, 3rd Fret)
Sorry about the every kiss

Every kiss you wasted bad
                     Fmaj7
I think the thing you said was true
                               
I'm going to die alone and sad

(Instrumental)

                   C
The wind's feeling real these days

Baby, it hurt's me some

Never thought I'd feel so blue

New York City, you're almost gone
Dm7             Em      F        G
think that I've fallen out of love 
Dm7  Em           F        G
think I've fallen out of love 
Dm7    Em           F        G
I think I've fallen out of love 
     C
With you

What a beautiful Song - Hope you like it.
Cheers.
