[Verse]
D                      Bm                 G       
Let us be lovers we'll marry our fortunes together
D             Gbm7        Bm            
I've got some real estate here in my bag
Gbm7                        Bm             Gbm7       B7  
    So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs Wagner pies
E   D          A           D      
And walked off to look for America
A Bm Bm7 G
      
D       A          Bm        D            G         
Kathy I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh
D        Gbm7         Bm             
Michigan seems like a dream to me now


[Chorus]
A                                      E      
It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw
A            E        D       Cmaj7
I've gone to look for America     
            Cmaj7  
Laughing on the bus
D       Dmaj7               
Playing games with the faces
D Cmaj7                   C         Cmaj7      D   Dmaj7
 She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy     
G                       Gmaj7              D      Bm7
 I said Be careful his bowtie is really a camera   


[Verse]
Bm Gmaj7 Bm        Bm7       Bm                        G       
       Toss me a cigarette I think there's one in my raincoat
D             A           Bm      
We smoked the last one an hour ago
     Bm7    Gbm7        B7      Gbm7              B7       Bm
So I looked     at the scenery     she read her magazine  
E            D            Gbm  D Bm    G
And the moon rose over an open  field 
D         A      Bm7                        G       
Kathy I'm lost I said though I knew she was sleeping
D             Gbm        Bm              
I'm empty and aching and I don't know why


[Chorus]
A                                           
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
E           A    E           D      
They've all come to look for America
E A        E           D      
 All come to look for America
E A        E           D      
 All come to look for America


[Outro]
Bm Bm7 Em A7 D A Bm Em
