[Intro 1]
[G][Em][G]
[D][C][C]
[G][Em][G]
[D][C][C]

[Verse 1]
[G]Let us be [Em]lovers,
we'll [G]marry our [D]fortunes to[C]gether
[G]I've got some real estate [Em]here in my bag
Ooh [Bm]ooh so, we bought a pack of [E]cigarettes
and [Bm]Mrs. Wagner's [E]pies
And we [A]walked [G]off
to [D]look for A[G]me ri[Em]ca[C]

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

[Chorus 1]
[C]Laughing on the bus
playing [G]games with the faces
[C]She said the man in the gabardine
suit was a [G]spy
[C]I said, "Be careful,
his bowtie is really a [G]camera"
[D][C]

[Verse 3]
[G]Toss me a cig[Em]arette,
[G]I think there's o[D]ne in my r[C]aincoat
[G]We smoked the last one an [Em]hour ago
Ooh [Bm]ooh so, I looked at the [E]scenery,
she [Bm]read her maga[E]zine
And the [A]moon [G]rose
[D]over an [G]open [Em]field[C]

[Verse 4]
[G]Cathy, "I'm [Em]lost," I [G]said,
though I [D]knew she was [C]sleeping
I'm [G]empty and aching
and [Em]I don't know why
[D]Counting the cars
on the New Jersey Turnpike
They've [A]all [D]come to [A]look for A[G]merica
[A]All [D]come to [A]look for A[G]merica
[A]All [D]come to [A]look for A[G]merica
[A]All [D]come to [A]look for A[G]merica
