So your brother's bound and gagged and they've chained him to a chair   Won't you please come to Chicago just to sing   In a land that's known as freedom how can such a thing be fair   Won't you please come to Chicago for the help that we can bring      We can change the world   Rearrange the world   It's dying   To get better      Politicians sit yourselves down there's nothing for you here   Won't you please come to Chicago for a ride   Don't ask Jack to help you 'cause he'll turn the other ear   Won't you please come to Chicago or else join the other side      (We can change the world)   Yes we can change the world   (Rearrange the world)   Rearrange the world      (It's dying)   If you believe in justice   (It's dying)   If you believe in freedom   (It's dying)   Let a man live his own life   (It's dying)   Rules and regulations who needs them   Open up the door      Somehow people must be free I hope the day comes soon   Won't you please come to Chicago show your face   From the bottom of the ocean to the mountains of the moon   Won't you please come to Chicago no one else can take your place      (We can change the world)   Yes we can change the world   (Rearrange the world)   Rearrange the world      (It's dying)   If you believe in justice   (It's dying)   If you believe in freedom   (It's dying)   Let a man live his own life   (It's dying)   Rules and regulations who needs them   Open up the door
