C         Cmaj7        Am         C          F       Fsus4 F
Let us be lovers we'll marry our fortunes together
C            Cmaj7               Am  
I've got some real estate here in my bag
Em7                      A7        Em7               A7
  So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner's pies
    D       C     G          C Cmaj7 Am     C
And walked off to look for Ame...ri..ca

C      Cmaj7      Am         C            F        Fsus4 F
Cathy I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh
C         Cmaj7        Am  
Michigan seems like a dream to me now
G
It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw
      D   G      D         Cmaj7
And I've gone to look for America

Fmaj7                     Cmaj7
Laughing on the bus playing games with the faces
Fmaj7                                       Cmaj7
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
Fmaj7                                     C    Cmaj7  Am      
I said be careful his bowtie is really a camera
Am7 F#m-5 F

C         Cmaj7        Am         C          F       Fsus4 F
Toss me a cigarette I think there's one in the raincoat
C            Cmaj7               Am  
We smoked the last one an hour ago
Em7                      A7        Em7               A7
So I looked at the scenery she read her magazine
    D       C     G          C Cmaj7 Am     C
And the moon rose over an open field

C         Cmaj7        Am         C          F       Fsus4 F
Cathy I'm lost I said though I knew she was sleeping
C         Cmaj7        Am  
I'm empty and aching and I don't know why
G
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
      D   G      D         Cmaj7
They've all come to look for America
      D   G      D         Cmaj7
All come to look for America
C Cmaj7 Am F F C
