title: "Is Chicago, Is Not Chicago"
Artist: Soul Coughing
Album: "Ruby Vroom"
Transcriber: Lee Nitzani

This song is pretty much the same the whole way through, with the
following
line:

G---------------------------------
D-------------------------2-------
A-----0-1-2-1-0-------0-1---1-0---
E-0-3-----------3-0-3-----------3-

There's a little funky jam section right after "Elmira is in the room"
1:05 minutes in that ends at 1:25. That goes like this:

G---2-2-0--------
D---------2------
A-0-----------0--
E-----------3----

There's also a bit when the bass isn't playing, but you can hear when
that is.

The lyrics are available on the Five Percent Nation, SC's official
website, at


www.soulcoughing.com

That's all folks!

This song is extremely visual, a slow motion walk of a plane as it crashes though an office. All these people from other places that work there are diving out of the way, their lives flashing before their eyes. (Chicago - not Chicago) You can hear the twisting metal...

social is right.... also everything he says is "in the room" is a city in the world somewhere.

He was hopped up on Goofballs in Chicago and was pointing at various things sayin, "Is Chicago!" and would then point to himself and say "Is not Chicago!" It amused him for hours on end and he ended up writing it into a song.

even doughty HIMSELF has gone on record stating that he was trippin' when he came up with the idea for that tune.
