yes - america (live at crystal palace 1971) lyrics

[instrumental intro]

[verse 1: jon anderson, anderson & chris squire]
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’s pies
[refrain: anderson, anderson & squire]
and walked on, walked on, walked on, to look for america

[verse 2: anderson, anderson & squire]
kathy, i said, as we boarded the greyhound in pittsburgh
michigan seems like a dream to me now
took me four days to hitchhike from saginaw
[refrain: anderson & squire]
all gone to look for america
all gone to look for america
all gone to look for america

[bridge: anderson, anderson & squire]
laughing on the bus, playing games with the faces
she said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
i said, ‘be careful, his bow tie is really a camera’

[verse 3: anderson, anderson & squire]
‘toss me a cigarette, i think there’s one in my raincoat’
‘we smoked the last one an hour ago’
so i looked at the scenery, she read her magazine
and the moon rose, the moon rose, the moon rose, over an open field
[verse 4: anderson, anderson & squire]
‘kathy, i’m lost’, i said, although i knew she was sleeping
but i’m empty and aching, and i don’t know why i’m
counting the cars on the new jersey turnpike
[refrain: anderson & squire]
they’ve all come to look for america
all come to look for america

[guitar solo: steve howe]

[verse 4: anderson, anderson & squire]
‘kathy, i’m lost’, i said, although i knew she was sleeping
but i’m empty and aching and i don’t know why i’m
counting the cars on the new jersey turnpike
[refrain: anderson & squire]
they’ve all come to look for america
all come to look for america

[refrain: anderson & squire]
all come to look for america
all come to look for america

[outro: anderson]
america!
america!
america!
