Got the Windy City blues in my soul
Harmonica crying, tales untold
In the heart of Chicago, where the cold winds blow
I'm playing my woes, letting the whole world know
Through the smoky haze, in a dim-lit bar
Guitar strings bending under fingers scarred
Blues riffs telling of life's deep scars
Living out stories between the stars
By the midnight hour, the crowd draws near
Feeling each note, clapping hands, shedding tears
Chicago whispers lies and cheers, in the music we confront our fears
Cobblestone alleys, echoes of the past, our blues adhere
Oh, Windy City blues, resonate the night
With each harmonica wail, we find our plight
In the alleys where the bluesmen roamed
Their stories now, forever intoned
Each lick and riff, a truth to be shown
In the Windy City, the blues has grown
Juke joint jumping, till the break of dawn
Harmonica's soul, never withdrawn
Soul of the city, it's gritty and raw
Heartbeat pounding to a bluesy law
From the depths of the soul, where the cold winds gnaw
Harmonica wails, in awe we withdraw
Underneath the streetlight's amber glow
Blues notes drift, in the evening's slow

Got the Windy City blues in my soul
Harmonica crying, tales untold
In the heart of Chicago, where the cold winds blow
I'm playing my woes, letting the whole world know
Through the smoky haze, in a dim-lit bar
Guitar strings bending under fingers scarred
Blues riffs telling of life's deep scars
Living out stories between the stars
By the midnight hour, the crowd draws near
Feeling each note, clapping hands, shedding tears
Chicago whispers lies and cheers, in the music we confront our fears
Cobblestone alleys, echoes of the past, our blues adhere
Oh, Windy City blues, resonate the night
With each harmonica wail, we find our plight
In the alleys where the bluesmen roamed

Soul of the city, it's gritty and raw
Heartbeat pounding to a bluesy law
From the depths of the soul, where the cold winds gnaw

Underneath the streetlight's amber glow
Blues notes drift, in the evening's slow
