Chicago Institute

Gm
Way back there an explosion of hope
                  Bb
Hit out hard in a furnace of steel
Bb                   Ab
I thought life was a fire
Eb                   Gm
I thought life was a high time
Gm                    Eb
(I thought life was a fire)
Eb                   Gm
I thought life was a symbol
Gm                      Eb
(I thought life was for livin')
Eb                     Gm
I thought life was for livin'
Gm                    Eb
(I thought life was a symbol)
Eb                   Bb   Cm   Gm Gm Bbm Cm
I thought life was a fire

Cm         Gm
There's an institute in Chicago
       Cm           Dm
With a room full of machines
         Gm
And they live this side of the sunrise
    Cm             Dm
And burn away your dreams

        Gm        F         Eb               Dm
Once you fly to Chicago - in Chicago you will die
          Gm                       Bb               Cm  Gm Gm Bbm Cm
When that institute in Chicago has recorded you and I

Cm         Gm
There's an empty house in California
            Cm             Dm
But they'll always let you in
            Gm
And they'll make you feel oh so easy
         Cm               Dm
Like you never learned to sin

   Gm                F                 Eb              Dm
Oh yes it's how they made it, how they made it seem so clean
          Gm                               Bb                  Cm    Gm Gm Bbm Cm
Yes, that empty house in California is our brave new world's machine

Cm     Gm
At the institute in Chicago
         Cm                 Dm
From the first day you were born
        Gm
Oh they just can't tell what you're feelin'
         Cm                   Dm
And they can't see how you're torn

          Gm            F               Eb              Dm
When your name's just a number - just a number you will die
            Gm                         Bb             Cm    Gm Gm Bbm Cm
'Cause that institute in Chicago never knew you were alive

Gm               Ab
Way back there a reflection of me
          Eb                  Bb
Turned my head in a circle of time
Bb                     Ab
I thought life was for livin'
Eb                   F
I thought life was a high time
F                    Bb
I thought life was a fire
Bb                   F       Cm
I thought life was a symbol
