Daddy was a cop
On the east side of Chicago
Back in the U S A
Back in the bad old days
3 3 -3 4 4 4 -3 -5 5-5-3
In the heat of a sum-mer night
3 3 -3 4 4 4 4 -3 3
In the land of the dol-lar bill
3 3 -3 4 4 4 -3 -55-55-3
When the town of Chi-ca-go died
3 3 -3 4 4 -3 4
And they talk a-bout it still
6 6 -6 6 -5 5 -5
When a man named Al Ca-pone
-5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 5
Tried to make that town his own
6 6 -6 6 -5 5 -5
And he called his gang to war
-5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 5
With the for-ces of the law
6 -5 5 3 2 3
I heard my ma-ma cry
3 3 3 7 7 7 -6* -6 -5 -55-3
I heard her pray the night Chi-ca-go died
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -5
Broth-er what a night it real-ly was
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -5
Broth-er what a fight it real-ly was,
-3 3 6
glo-ry be
6 -5 5 3 2 3
I heard my ma-ma cry
3 3 3 7 7 7 -6* -6 -5 -55-3
I heard her pray the night Chi-ca-go died
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -5
Broth-er what a night the peo-ple saw
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -5
Broth-er what a fight the peo-ple saw,
-3 3 6
yes in-deed
3 3 -3 4 4 4 -3 -55-55-3
And the sound of the bat-tle rang
3 3 -3 4 4 4 4 -3 3
Through the streets of the old east side
3 3 -3 4 4 4 -3 -55-55-3
Till the last of the hood-lum gang
3 3 -3 4 4 -3 4
Had sur-ren-dered up or died
6 6 -6 6 -5 5 -5
There was shout-ing in the street
-5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 5
And the sound of run-ning feet
6 6 -6 6 -5 5 -5
And I asked some-one who said
-5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 5
‘Bout a hun-dred cops are dead
6 -5 5 3 2 3
I heard my ma-ma cry
3 3 3 7 7 7 -6* -6 -5 -55-3
I heard her pray the night Chi-ca-go died
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -5
Broth-er what a night it real-ly was
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -5
Broth-er what a fight it real-ly was,
-3 3 6
glo-ry be
6 -5 5 3 2 3
I heard my ma-ma cry
3 3 3 7 7 7 -6* -6 -5 -55-3
I heard her pray the night Chi-ca-go died
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -5
Broth-er what a night the peo-ple saw
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -5
Broth-er what a fight the peo-ple saw,
-3 3 6
yes in-deed
3 3 -3 4 4 -3 -55-55-3
Then there was no sound at all
3 3 -3 4 4 -3 4
But the clock up-on the wall
6 6 -6 6 -5 5 -5
Then the door burst o-pen wide
-5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 5
And my dad-dy stepped in-side
6 6 -6 6 -5 5 -5
And he kissed my ma-ma’s face
-5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 5
And he brushed her tears a-way
6 -5 4 3 2 3
The night Chi-ca-go died
-6 6 -6 6 -5 -55-3
The night Chi-ca-go died
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -5
Broth-er what a night the peo-ple saw
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -5
Broth-er what a fight the peo-ple saw,
-3 3 6
yes in-deed
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -5
Broth-er what a night it real-ly was
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -5
Broth-er what a fight it real-ly was,
-3 3 6
glo-ry be
