[Verse 1]
C              F    C
Chicago can be very cold
                      Am
It's a bitter land of frost and snow
C                       F       C
But's where my eyes did first behold
F          G       C
You in the Emerald City

[Chorus]
                  F    C
Stay with me this afternoon
F             G
Hand to me my glass and spoon
C                     F          C
My only delight is in being with you
F            G       C
Again in the Emerald City

Well with pikes we dug out the Erie
 C
 Canal
With the Chinamen we layed the 
Am
railroad as well
C                F      C
On our west ward way to dwell
F      G       C
In the Emerald City
                        F         
To southside stockyards southside 
C
steel
                Am
A city built on Irish will
C                      F         
Who all came here with dreams to 
C
fill

C                F       C
Now everyone was wearing Green
                    Am
Down Western Avenue we were seen
    C                       F   C
And my friends they fill my memories
F   G         C
All along the way
                          F       
Well I kissed my girl and fell in 
C
love
                     Am
In the front room of Christina's pub
    C            F
And in my mind I walk her home
        G       C
Now and forever more
