Chicago Lyrics By Graham Nash

    so your brother’s bound and gagged
    and they’ve chained him to a chair
    won’t you please come to chicago just to sing
    in 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 bring

    we can change the world
    rearrange the world
    it’s dying
    to get better

    politicians sit yourselves down
    there’s nothing for you here
    won’t you please come to chicago for a ride
    don’t ask jack to help you
    ’cause he’ll turn the other ear
    won’t you please come to chicago or else join the other side

    we can change yes we can change the world
    rearrange rearrange 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
    open up the door

    somehow people must be free
    i hope the day comes soon
    won’t you please come to chicago show your face
    from the bottom of the ocean
    to the mountains of the moon
    won’t you please come to chicago no one else can take your place

    we can change yes we can change the world
    rearrange rearrange 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 yeah it’s dying
    rules and regulations who needs them
    open up the door
