After winning the World Series after 108 years what can you do but come back and do it again.

lyrics

(Intro) G-em-C-am
(Verse) G-em-C-am 2x
I’m going back to Wrigley with a ticket in my hand.
No ring upon my finger because I am just a fan.
G-C G-am
And I spent most my money on sausages and beer
G- em- D
And I was there when they won it last year.

(Verse 2)
Pressured anticipation had the city tightly wrought
With a 5-3 combination as the sailing ball was caught
Half a dozen generations who had lived to see the day
The Cubs would take the season all the way

(Chorus 1)
E----C----E7 2x
We’re coming back to Wrigley
We’re coming back to Wrigley
E- C
Where the ivy will start growin
G- am D
And the April winds are blowing out today

(Verse 3)
The conquerors in triumph bring the foreign trophy home
Like old Caesar on the Appian way back in Ancient Rome
While the cities of the vanquished have to turn around and look
As history’s inscribed into the books

(Chorus 2)
We’re coming back to Wrigley
We’re coming back to Wrigley
They’ll be no talk of losing
As the bleacher bums are boozing by the flags

(Verse 3)
We’ll pay more for the peanuts, we’ll pay more for the beer
We’re paying for the players that can win another year.
If that’s the cost of winning. The Cubs can take it all.
Just keep on having fun and playing ball

(Chorus 3)
We’re coming back to Wrigley
We’re coming back to Wrigley
(E--C----G-----am)
Yeah we’re all a little tougher
So let’s just go win another one
Yeah we’re all a little tougher
So let’s just go win another one
Yeah we’re all a little tougher
So let’s just go win another one
Yeah we’re all a little tougher
So let’s just go win another one
(We’re Coming Back to Wrigley)
