Am E One morning in Chicago where the wind comes off the lakeE Am A slow and sleepy pizza man had a pizza pie to bakeAm Dm He gathered his ingredients, he quickly rolled his doughAm E Am He twirled it and he tossed it, holy cow, where did it go [Verse 2]Am E The dough flew out the window and went flying down the streetE Am And as it flew, it grew and grew this wheel of whirling wheatAm Dm This spinning mass of flour acting like a hurricaneAm E Am It kept on growing larger ‘till it finally became [Chorus]Am The giant pizza (triple cheese)G The giant pizza (extra sausage)F The giant pizza (no anchovies)E Am That ate Chicago [Verse 3]Am E The cheeses of Chicago all went flying off the shelvesE Am They joined the giant pizza ‘cause they could not help themselvesContinues after the adAm Dm Tomatoes from the farm stands all discovered they could flyAm E Am And they all went plop, atop the giant pizza in the sky [Chorus]Am The giant pizza (triple cheese)G The giant pizza (extra sausage)F The giant pizza (no anchovies)E Am That ate Chicago [Verse 4]Am E The pizza cast a shadow that was miles and miles wideE Am The smell of pepperoni kept the citizens insideAm Dm The spinning crust descended ‘till as everybody fearedAm E Am With a tell-tale whiff of garlic, all Chicago disappeared [Chorus]Am The giant pizza (triple cheese)G The giant pizza (extra sausage)F The giant pizza (no anchovies)E Am That ate Chicago [Verse 5]Am E Now when you order pizza and you start to salivateE Am Just think of poor Chicago and its sad and tragic fateAm Dm When your guy spins his pizza and he twirls it in the airAm E Am If it comes back then you’re cool, but if it doesn’t then beware [Chorus]Am The giant pizza (triple cheese)G The giant pizza (extra sausage)F The giant pizza (no anchovies)E Am That ate Chicago [Chorus]Am The giant pizza (triple cheese)G The giant pizza (extra sausage)F The giant pizza (no anchovies)E Am That ate Chicago
