(Intro to ghost of Chicago)

(Chorus)
Chicago, Chicago, a city of might
From ashes to skyscrapers, a glorious sight
Through fires and struggles, it rose from the ground
A testament to spirit, forever profound

Let's drop some knowledge 'bout the Windy City's past
From trading post beginnings to a town built to last
It started small, a swampy terrain
But visionaries came, with dreams in their brain
Jean Baptiste Point du Sable, a pioneer bold
Established a trading post, stories to be told
Fort Dearborn stood strong, then conflict arose
But Chicago's destiny, steadily grows

(Chorus)
Chicago, Chicago, a city of might
From ashes to skyscrapers, a glorious sight
Through fires and struggles, it rose from the ground
A testament to spirit, forever profound

The Great Chicago Fire, a devastating blaze
But resilience emerged, in a multitude of ways
Rebuilt with vigor, a skyline so grand
Innovation and progress, hand in hand
From jazz to blues, a cultural hub
Politics and power, a historical club
A city of neighborhoods, diverse and alive
Chicago's story, continues to thrive

(Chorus)
Chicago, Chicago, a city of might
From ashes to skyscrapers, a glorious sight
Through fires and struggles, it rose from the ground
A testament to spirit, forever profound
