Lyrics

You're Chicago - The City We Love
by Stuart Rosenberg & Doug Adair - Copyright 2009


You're the heart of the nation
A mecca of dreams
Home to all people
Like a beacon, you gleam
You're a strong-willed survivor, ever gracious yet tough
You're Chicago - the City We Love

Forever remain a town of compassion
A hallmark of fashion, the center of trade
Long may you stay, a bold innovator
A great educator, always leading the way

Turn around

You're the cross-roads of America
A lady so grand
Known for legends and landmarks
Built with hard-working hands
You're Xanadu on the prairie, rising out of the rough
You're Chicago - the City We Love

Forever remain a town of compassion
A hallmark of fashion, the center of trade
Long may you stay, a bold innovator
A great educator, always leading the way

You're the heart of the nation...
You're Chicago - the City We Love
