[Bb] [F]
[Fm] The bottom line's been snorted [F] [Bb] The bottom [F] card's been dealt
[C] No one knows like you know right [Bb] now How true the [F] batting felt
All your life you wasted [Bb] on a dream and felt [F]
today
[C] Worker bees kill off their queen [Bb] and carry all her [F] eggs away
Oh, [Bb] but if you die, fear in God, [F] painfully [Bb] employed
[F] No, you will not go [C] to heaven, [Bb] you'll go to Champaign, [F] Illinois
Up north in Chicago, [Bb] where booze makes no [F] one blush
[C]
Memories come back to you [Bb] in a double [F] bourbon rush
Memories, they aren't all bad, [Bb] and neither my friend [F] are you
There [C] is an argument, there must be some heaven [Bb] in my heart that are [F] half true
Oh, [Bb] but if you spend your whole life [F] rolling horses [Bb] into Troy
[F] No, you will not go [C] to heaven, [Bb] you'll go to [F] Champaign, Illinois
No, you will not go [C] to heaven, you'll [Bb] go to Champaign, [F] Illinois

Roll on Blacktop Highway, [Bb]
circles towards [F] the sun
[C]
Springfield's in the distance, [Bb] and that's the last [F] big one
After that comes judgment, oh, [Bb] and judgment will [F] be swift
[C] You will be eliminated, [Bb] but here's a [F] parting gift
Oh, [Bb] if you die, fear in God, [F] and painfully [Bb] employed
[F] No, you will not go [C] to heaven, you'll [Bb] go to Champaign, [F] Illinois
No, you will not go [C] to heaven, you'll [Bb] go to Champaign, [F] Illinois
No, you will not [C] go to heaven, you'll [Bb] go to Champaign, [F] Illinois
