C       Am   C       F
Ooh ooh ooh  a ooh a ooh
C       Am   C       F
Ooh ooh ooh  a ooh a ooh

[Verse]
C                       Am        C          F
Let us be lovers, we'll marry our fortunes together
C                         Am         Am7
I've got some real-estate here in my bag
Em                     A7              Em          A7
So we bought a pack of cigarettes, and Mrs. Wagner pies
    D      C      G        C    Am  Am7  F
And walked off to look for America

[Verse]
C                  Am          C            F
Cathy I said as we boarded the Greyhound in Pittsburgh
C                     Am          Am7
Michigan seems like a dream to me now
G                                       Em
It took me four days to hitch-hike from Saginaw
    D    G       D         Cmaj7  C
And I've come to look for America

[Bridge]
Bb                           C
Laughing on the bus, playing games with the faces
Bb                      C                    Am C
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
F                     Fmaj7              C   Am C Am    F
I said be careful his bowtie is really a camera

[Verse]
C                     Am            C         F
Toss me a cigarette I think there's one in my raincoat
C                         Am    Am7
We smoked the last one an hour ago
Em                 A7       Em           A7      Em
So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine
        D    C    G       C    Am   C  F
And the moon rose over an open field

[Verse]
C                 Am             C            F
Cathy I'm lost, I said, though I knew she was sleeping
    C                      Am         Am7
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
D   G       D         Cmaj7
All come to look for America

[Outro]
C  Em Am C        F
Do do do do-oo do do-do-do
C  Em Am C        F            C
Do do do do-oo do do-do-do
