Intro: Bm F#m Em x4

Bm   F#m        Em
Illinois, I could put you in a poem
Illinois, I could write you in a song
But the ink keeps bleeding through the paper
So now I must move on

Bm   F#m        Em
Illinois, I am your favorite stepson
A Santa Claus Sears Tower in your sky
A poem for every band who stood before me
I just needed three more minutes of your time

A  Em  G x2
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/d/damien_jurado/thax_douglas_1_crd.html ]
I want to be a legend in my lifetime
A street sign of my name where I am from
Illinois, I really do love you madly
But you and I both know I don't belong

And I do thank you for the love you've shown me
Take care of my parents and my books
I'll send postcards from the great state of Texas
Forget me not, Thax Douglas

A  Em  G 
Forget me not
Forget me not - best wishes
Forget me not
Forget me not - best wishes

Bm   F#m        Em
Illinois, I could put you in a poem
Illinois, I could write you in a song
But the ink keeps bleeding through the paper
So now I must move on

A  Em  G 
Forget me not
Forget me not - best wishes
Forget me not
Forget me not
