[C]Let us be lo[Am]vers, we'll m[C]arry our f[G]ortunes t[Fmaj7]ogether
[C]I've got some real-estate [Am]here in my bag ooooo

[C]Cathy I said as we [Am]boarded the [G]Greyhound in [Fmaj7]Pittsburg
[C]Michigan seems like a [Am]dream to me now
[G]It took me four days to hitch-hike from Saginaw
And [D]I've [G]come to [D]look for A[C]merica
[Fmaj7]Laughing on the bus, playing g[C]ames with the faces
[Fmaj7]She said the man in the gabardine suit was a [C]spy

[G]Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
They've [D]all [G]come to [D]look for A[C]merica
They've [D]all [G]come to [D]look for A[C]merica
They've [D]all [G]come to [D]look for A[C]merica
