America - Paul Simon [Capo 2]

Let us be lovers we'll marry our fortunes together
C             C/B         Am             (2)
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  C/B  Am  G  F
And we walked off to look for America

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

	Fmaj7                                    Cmaj7
	Laughing on the bus playing games with the faces
	She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
	Fmaj7                       ...C  C/B  Am  Am/G  /F# /F
	I said be careful his bowtie is really a camera

Toss me a cigarette I think there's one in the raincoat
We smoked the last one an hour ago
So I looked at the scenery she read her magazine
And the moon rose over an open field

Cathy I'm lost I said though I knew she was sleeping
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
All come to look for America
All come to look for Ameeeeeeeerica
