   Laughing on the bus, playing games with the faces 
Bbmaj7                                       Cmaj7 
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy

And the moon rose over an o-pen field

    C         C/B        Am               Am 
I'm empty and aching and I don't know why 
G 
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike

They've all come to look for America

All come to look for America
