Chords for CHICAGO - Beginnings (Live, 1998)

[F] I didn't hear there's a bunch of guys [Bm] in here doing bad things.
[Em] _ [A]
You know what doesn't have a leader?
[Am] It's a democracy.
Most decisions are done by osmosis.
And [E] the band really seems to communicate.
You know, we sit down and [A] have meetings about, you know, material and arrangements [G#] and all [A#] of that.
Well, they don't [D] let me.
There is no one actually, [F#] physically, _ [A] solely [N] in charge.
When I put this band together, I made sure I handpicked these guys.
You know, I didn't want to make myself look bad.
Like, Waltz sort of runs on osmosis.
We're a rock and roll band with horns, but Jimmy has always sort of said it, and I think he says it pretty well when he says,
with the horns being an [G] integral part of each song, not just an [N] afterthought.
A melodic extension of the vocals.
Chris and me, [Am] we're just R&B freaks.
We don't know much about anything.
So [C] we like to burn, you know.
So we're trying to [A] cover all [D] the spectrum of the musical [N] realm of life.
Thirty years has gone by like a flash, and here we are.
America, we love you. Hi, Bobby.
_ Anyway, we're ready to rock and roll.
Hope you have a great time. _ _ _
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the stage, the one and only _ Chicago. _ _ _

[Em] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ When [D] I'm with you, _ [A] _ it [D] doesn't matter where we [A] are _ or [D] what we're doing.
_ [A] _ I'm with you, that's [C] all that _ _ _ [G] matters.
_ _ Time [C] passes much too quickly [G] _ _ when [Em] we're together [G] laughing.
_ _ I wish [C] I could sing it to you.
[G] I _ wish [C] I could sing it to you.

[A] I'm deciding, _ [Em] _ _ _ _
[A] I'm deciding [Em] baby. _ _
[A] I _ _ [Em] _ can't ever think of the right [A] words to say.
[Em] No, no, no, [G] no, no, [A] no.
When I kiss you, _ _ I feel [F#m] a thousand different _
[A] feelings.
I've got [D] a chill _
[A] _ _ going over [C] my [G] body.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] How I feel [G] now.
_ [D] I [C] quickly try to decide which [G] one [Bm] I should [C] try to put into words.
[G] _ _
[C] I try to put it into words.
[A] _ _
[Em] Oh, oh, oh, oh, [A] _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ [A] _ _
[Em] oh, oh, oh, oh, [A] _ _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ oh. [A] I'm deciding.

_ [G] _ _ _ [A] _ _ It's only [G] the beginning _ _ [F] of what I want to be [G] forever.
_ _ _ [A] _ _ Only [G] the beginning.
_ _ [F] _ _ Only [G] just the start.
_ [A] I've got to [G] get you into my life [F] baby.
