Lyrics:

My door is locked, my debts are paid
I'll do the Chicago promenade
My back was turned, I did not see
That shadow climbing up on me
I took my turn at fixing hearts
But that goes bad before it starts
I'm desperate now, I must say
I'll do the Chicago promenade
If I die now before I'm old
My story will be less than told
There's so much more to suffer through
Before I meet again with you
And I've tried so hard, and I've been so blind
And I thought we could all grieve one at a time
I lost a friend, it felt like five
A man who wouldn't compromise
I'll think of him on New Year's Day
And do the Chicago promenade
