Chicago Lyrics


So your brother's bound and gagged
And they've chained him to a chair
Won't you please come to Chicago
Just to singIn a land that's known as freedom
How can such a thing be fair
Won't you please come to Chicago
For the help that we can bringWe can change the world
Re-arrange the world
It's dying ... to get betterPoliticians sit yourselves down
There's nothing for you here
Won't you please come to Chicago
For a rideDon't ask Jack to help you
'Cause he'll turn the other earWon't you please come to Chicago
Or else join the other sideWe can change the world
Re-arrange the world
It's dying ... if you believe in justice
It's dying ... and if you believe in freedom
It's dying ... let a man live his own life

It's dying ... rules and
regulations, who needs them
Throw them out the door
Somehow people must be free
I hope the day comes soon
Won't you please come to Chicago
Show your faceFrom the bottum of the ocean
To the mountains on the moon
Won't you please come to Chicago
No one else can take your placeYes, we can change the world
Re-arrange the world
It's dying ... if you believe in justice
It's dying ... and if you believe in freedom
It's dying ... let a man live his own life
It's dying ... rules and
regulations, who needs them
Throw them out the door

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young are a pioneering folk-rock supergroup that formed from the ranks of three 1960s bands: Stephen Stills and Neil Young from Buffalo Springfield, David Crosby from The Byrds, and Graham Nash from The Hollies. The band is primarily known for their four-part vocal harmonies. They have a strong association with the Woodstock Festival, having played their second gig there, and they are one of the few North American groups that rivalled The Beatles in popularity in the late 1960s and early 1970s. They are commonly referred to by their initials CSNY.

After the 1970 shootings at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio, Neil Young wrote "Ohio", a tribute to the four students who were shot by the Ohio National Guard. Many radio stations would not play the song "Ohio" because of the anti-war tone of the song. Even so, largely because of its topical nature, "Ohio" bumped "Teach Your Children", released three weeks earlier, from its ascent in the charts, replacing it on the popularity climb, ending at number fourteen, while "Teach Your Children" ended at number sixteen.

Neil Young was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1995. David Crosby, Stephen Stills, and Graham Nash were inducted in 1997.
