Let us be lovers, we'll marry our fortunes together

I've got some real-estate here in my bag

So we bought a pack of cigarettes, and Mrs. Wagner pies

She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
F Fmaj7 C Am C Am F
I said be careful his bowtie is really a camera
C Am C F
Toss me a cigarette I think there's one in my raincoat
C Am Am7
We smoked the last one an hour ago
Em A7 Em A7 Em
So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine
D C G C Am C F
And the moon rose over an open field

Cathy I'm lost, I said, though I knew she was sleeping
C Am Am7
I'm empty and aching and I don't know why
G Em
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
