lyrics

Even though I took the train
Almost every single day
I never recognized a face
Getting on it

Every time I went up north
I'd try to bike along Lake Shore
But it always made me bored
If I'm being honest

Every time I played a show
Barely anyone would go
We got paid out from the door
If there was any

Once the whole band made ten bucks
At a place called Ronny's on California
And the PA kind of sucked
And so'd the whiskey

Say what you will
Say what you will
But my heart was never broken in Chicago

The towers will climb
The city, catch fire
The windows will shake
But my heart never breaks

All the trash in Streeterville
All the navies on the pier
Couldn't ever keep me here
In Chicago

All the hipster chicks in Wicker Park
All the pretty birds at the Skylark
Couldn't ever break my heart
In Chicago

No, my heart was never broken
No, my heart was never broken
No, my heart was never broken
In Chicago
