Chicago Lyrics by Japandroids

Fate & Alcohol

2024

[Intro]
(Like we see it in Chicago)

[Verse 1]
It's a little late for breakfast, but for you two, I'll see what I can do
Coffee coming right up and two shots of the good stuff too
Aren't you tired of being tired all the time?
Girl, your eyes are awfully red
As for you, boy, ain't hard to tell?
In love with it all, never want it to end

[Pre-Chorus]
Ma'am, have mercy I'm sweating through my shirt
Anymore, my body’s gonna burn
Up in front of everyone

[Chorus]
Sorry, baby
We call it like we see it in Chicago
Sorry, baby
We call it like we see it in Chicago

[Verse 2]
Don't got the words, don’t matter, sometimes silence says it all
But if you ask me, pathetic comеs to mind, fate and alcohol
And beg your pardon, but, fuck y’all fight it for?
Got the wind at your back, baby, and it's blowing somеwhere warm

[Pre-Chorus]
Goddamn, ma'am, I'm sweating through my shirt
Anymore, my body's gonna burn
Up in front of everyone

[Chorus]
Sorry, baby
We call it like we see it in Chicago
Sorry, baby
We call it like we see it in Chicago

[Bridge]
Thing about love, I know it when I see it
So spare me the bullshit, it's plain to see
You can sit there, deny it all night, baby
But this just-friends act ain't fooling me

[Chorus]
And I'm so sorry, baby
But we call it like we see it in Chicago
And I'm so sorry, baby
But we call it like we see it in Chicago

[Outro]
Sorry, baby
Sorry, baby
Sorry, baby (We call it like we see it in Chicago)
Sorry, baby
