America

[Intro]  
[D] [Bm] [D] [G]  
[D] [Bm] [D] [G]  
Ooh ooh ooh a ooh a ooh, ooh ooh ooh a ooh a ooh  

[Verse 1]  
[D]               [Bm]      [D]          [G]  
Let us be lovers, we'll marry our fortunes together  
[D]                 [Bm]         [Bm7]  
I've got some real-estate here in my bag  
[F#m]             [B7]        [F#m]        [B7]  
So we bought a pack of cigarettes, and Mrs. Wagner pies  
   [E]   [D]   [A]       [D]   [Bm] [Bm7] [G]  
And walked off to look for America  

[Verse 2]  
[D]               [Bm]        [D]         [G]  
Cathy I said as we boarded the Greyhound in Pittsburg  
[D]                   [Bm]          [Bm7]  
Michigan seems like a dream to me now  
[A]                               [F#m]  
It took me four days to hitch-hike from Saginaw  
   [E]  [A]      [E]        [Dmaj7]  [D]  
And I've come to look for America  

[Bridge]  
[C]                         [D]  
Laughing on the bus, playing games with the faces  
[C]                     [D]                 [Bm] [D]  
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy  
[G]                 [Gmaj7]           [D]  [Bm] [D] [Bm] [G]  
I said be careful his bowtie is really a camera  

[Verse 3]  
[D]                [Bm]         [D]          [G]  
Toss me a cigarette I think there's one in my raincoat  
[D]                    [Bm]        [Bm7]  
We smoked the last one an hour ago  
[F#m]           [B7]       [F#m]          [B7] [F#m]  
So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine  
       [E]   [D]   [A]       [D]   [Bm] [D] [G]  
And the moon rose over an open field  

[Verse 4]  
[D]               [Bm]           [D]         [G]  
Cathy I'm lost, I said, though I knew she was sleeping  
   [D]                  [Bm]         [Bm7]  
I'm empty and aching and I don't know why  
[A]                              [F#m]  
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike  
       [E]  [A]      [E]        [Dmaj7]  
They've all come to look for America  
       [E]  [A]      [E]        [Dmaj7]  
They've all come to look for America  
       [E]  [A]      [E]        [Dmaj7] [D]  
They've all come to look for America
