[Intro 1]
[D][F#m][Bm][A][D][G][D][G][D][F#m][Bm]
[D][G]

[Verse 1]
"Let [D]us be lov[F#m]ers,
[D]we'll [Bm]marry our [D]fortunes [G]to gether"
[D]"I've got [F#m]some real estate
[Bm]here in my bag"
[F#m]So we bought a pack of cigar
[B]ettes [F#m]and Mrs. Wagner pi[B]es
And we [E]walked [D]off to look
[A]for [D]Ame[F#m]rica
[Bm][D][G]

[Verse 2]
[D]"Kathy," I said as we [Bm]boarded
[D]a Greyhound in [G]Pittsburgh
[D]"Michigan seems like a [Bm]dream to me now"
[A]It took me four days to
hitchhike from Saginaw
[E]I've [A]gone to [E]look for [D]America

[Verse 3]
[C]
Laughing on the bus
Playing [D]games with the faces
[C]She said the man in
the gabardine suit was [D]a spy
[G]I said, "Be careful,
his bowtie is really a [D]camera"
[Bm][D][Bm][G]

[Verse 4]
[D]"Toss me a cigarette,
[Bm]I think there's [D]one in my [G]raincoat"
[D]"We smoked the last one
[Bm]an hour [F#m]ago"
So I looked [B]at the scenery,
[F#m]she read her magazi[B]ne
And the [E]moon [D]rose [A]over [D]an
open [Bm]field
[D][G]

[Verse 5]
[D]"Kathy, I'm lost," [Bm]I said,
though I [D]knew she was sleep[G]ing
I'm [D]empty and aching [F#m]and I
[Bm]don't know why
[A]Counting the cars on the New
Jersey Turnpike
They've [E]all [A]come to [E]look for [D]America
[E]All [A]come to [E]look for [D]America
[E]All [A]come to [E]look [D]for America
