                Let us be lovers, we'll marry our fortunes together
                D             A/C#          Bm
                I've got some real-estate here in my bag

            Cathy I said as we boarded the Greyhound in Pittsburg
                D        A/C#            Bm 
                Michigan seems like a dream to me now
                A
                It took me four days to hitch-hike from Savannah
                E    A       E         Dmaj7
                I've come to look for America

                C7M                           D7M
                Laughing on the bus, playing games with the faces
                C7M                                          D7M
                She said the man in the garbadine suit was a spy
                C7M                   A7                  D
                I said be careful his bowtie is really a camera

           D         A/C#         Bm              A         G
           Toss me a cigarette I think there's one in my raincoat
                D         A/C#          Bm
                We smoked the last one an hour ago

           So I looked at the scenery, and she read her magazine
                       A    D    A Bm C#m D A/C# Bm G
                An the moon rose over an open field


           D         A/C#    Bm             A               G
           Cathy I'm lost, I said, though I knew she was sleeping
                    D          A/C#      Bm
                I'm empty and aching and I don't know why
                A
                Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
                        E   A       E        Dmaj7
                They've all gone to look for America

American Tune

Simon & Garfunkel

Cifra: Principal (violão e guitarra)
Tom: C
C         F    C    Dm  C  G  E 
Many's the time I've been mistaken, 
    Am    E7    Am                
And many times confuse.  
C             F C   Dm   C  G  E 
Yes, and I've often felt forsaken,  
    Am    E7      Am                
And certainly misused.  
             F   G         F   C 
Oh, but I'm alright, I'm alright,  
          F     G    E      E7                
I'm just weary to my bones.  
F          G                   C      G    D     G 
Still, you don't expect to be bright and bonvivant,  
    F  C   G       E   Dm  C   G         C 
So far away from home, So far away from home 
C               F      C   Dm  C  G  E 
I don't know a soul whose not been battered, 
               Am         E7        Am                
I don't have a friend who feels at ease, 
C               F      C      Dm  C  G  E 
I don't  know a dream whose not been shattered, 
    Am    E7       Am                
Or driven to its knees. 
             F   G          F    C 
Oh, but It's alright, It's alright,  
         F      G       E      E7                
For we lived so well so long. 
F       G                   C   G       D       G                
Still when I think of the road we're traveling on, 
G  F   C  G          E                
I wonder what's gone wrong.  
 Dm                C         G            C                
I can't help it; I wonder what has gone wrong 
  C                
And I dream I was dying,  
                   G             Am 
I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly, 
                  G          F          C    G               
And looking back down at me smiled reassuringly. 
                     C                
And I dreamed I was flying, 
               G                  Am 
And high up above my eyes could clearly see 
               G                
The Statue of Liberty, 
    F    C      G 
Sailing away to sea, 
                     C                
And I dreamed I was flying. 
 
C               F   C    Dm        C    G    E 
We come on the ship they call the Mayflower,  
               Am         E7        Am          
We come on the ship that sailed the moon. 
C               F C  Dm    C  G     E
We come in the age's most uncertain hours, 
      Am    E7         Am          
And sing the American Tune. 
             F   G          F    C 
Oh, and it's alright, it's alright,  
        F     G     E      E7    
You can be forever blessed. 
F        G                C    G   D       G        
Still tomorrow's gonna be another working day, 
          F    C   G        E        
And I'm trying to get some rest, 
     Dm     C         G           C 
That's all I'm trying, to get some rest.

I'm sitting in the railway station
      G/F#                  G/F  Em7
Got a ticket to my destination, hmmmm
       Am                         F
On a tour of one-night stands my suitcase and guitar in hand
      G                                  D
And ev'ry stop is neatly planned for a poet and one-man band


G          C
Homeward bound,
       G
I wish I was,
          C
Homeward bound
G                F7M        C
Home, where my thought's escaping
G               F7M       C
Home, where my music's playing
G               F7M       C
Home, where my love lies waiting
D             G
Silently for me


G
Ev'ry day's an endless stream
    G/F#                G/F    Em7
of cigarettes and magazines, hmmmm
     Am                                  F
And each town looks the same to me, the movies and the factories
      G                            D
And ev'ry stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be,


G          C
Homeward bound,
       G
I wish I was,
          C
Homeward bound
G                F7M        C
Home, where my thought's escaping
G               F7M       C
Home, where my music's playing
G               F7M       C
Home, where my love lies waiting
D             G
Silently for me


G
Tonight I'll sing my songs again,
G/F#                        G/F   Em7
I'll play the game and pretend, hmmmm
    Am                                F
But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity
     G                       D
Like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me


G          C
Homeward bound,
       G
I wish I was,
          C
Homeward bound
G                F7M        C
Home, where my thought's escaping
G               F7M       C
Home, where my music's playing
G               F7M       C
Home, where my love lies waiting
D             G
Silently for me

       Silently for me

The mama pajama rolled out of bed,

The mama looked down and spit on the ground,
                         D
every time my name gets mentioned

The papa said "Oy, if I get that boy,
                                       A
I'm gonna stick him in the house of detention"

 Fmaj7 Cmaj7    Fmaj7 Cmaj7    Dm7          G7              C       Am
 Old   Friends. Old   Friends. Sat on their park bench like bookends.
  Dm7                         G                  Am
A newspaper blown through the grass falls on the round toes of the
Cmaj7              F   C6
high shoes of the Old Friends.

 Fmaj7 Cmaj7    Dm7        G7         Fmaj7 Em7  Dm7
 Old   Friends. Winter companions the old   men. Lost in their
G7        C               Am          Dm7           G7    Em7
overcoats waiting for the sunset. The sounds of the city, sifting
        Am                 G           F               C6
through trees, settle like dust on the shoulder of the Old Friends.

 Dm7       G7       Cmaj7             F         Fm         C
 Can you imagine us years from today, sharing a park bench quietly?
    Dm7                    Am
How terribly strange to be seventy.

 Fmaj7 Cmaj7    Dm7    G7          Fmaj7 Em7    Dm7      G7
 Old   Friends. Memory brushes the same  years. Silently sharing the
C6   Am
same fears.

Between the salt water and the sea strands.

Then she'll be a true love of mine.

Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather.

Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme.

The Boxer

C                                             Am
I am just a poor boy though my story's seldom told
             G
I have squandered my resistance 
      G7             G6                C
For a pocket full of mumbles, such are promises
             Am            G                 F
All lies and jest, still a man hears what he wants to hear
                   C     G  G7  G6  C
And disregards the rest

        C                                                       Am
When I left my home and my family, I was no more than a boy
       G
        In the company of strangers
       G7         G6               C
In the quiet of a railway station, running scared
       Am           G              F
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
                        C
Where the ragged people go
        G              G7   G6         C
Looking for the places only they would know

Am Em Am F G C
Lie la lie Lie la lie Lie la lie Lie la lie Lie la lie 
        C                                                Am
Asking only workman's wages I come looking for a job
             G
But I get no offers
       G7               G6                C
Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
       Am                G                F
I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome
                    C
I took some comfort there
G                  G7  G6  C

Am Em Am F G C
Lie lie lie lie la

Then I'm laying out my winter clothes and wishing I was gone
Going home where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
Leading me, going home.

In the clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his trade
And he carries a reminder ov ev'ry glove that laid him down
Or cut him till he cried out in his anger and his shame
I am leaving, I am leaving
But the fighter still remains

Am Em Am F G C
Lie la lie ... etc.


The Sound Of Silence

Am                       G
Hello darkness, my old friend
                             Am
I've come to talk with you again
                      F      C
Because a vision softly creeping
                        F       C
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
         F                              C
And the vision that was planted in my brain
         C    C/B Am C
Still remains
C           G        Am
Within the sound of silence

Am                            G
In restless dreams I walked alone
                          Am
Narrow streets of cobblestone
                   F         C
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
                           F        C
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
        F                                         C
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
                C    C/B Am C
That split the night
C                G        Am
And touched the sound of silence

Am                        G
And in the naked light I saw
                           Am
Ten thousand people, maybe more
                   F        C
People talking without speaking
                   F         C
People hearing without listening
                F                        C
People writing songs that voices never share
            C   C/B Am C
And no one dared
C            G        Am
Disturb the sound of silence

Am                            G
"Fools", said I, "You do not know
                        Am
Silence like a cancer grows
                      F           C
Hear my words that I might teach you,
                     F           C
Take my arms that I might reach you"
        F                           C
But my words like silent raindrops fell
Am  C                  G          Am
    And echoed in the wells of silence

Am                         G
And the people bowed and prayed
                     Am
To the neon god they made
                         F       C
And the sign flashed out its warning
                      F      C
In the words that it was forming
                        F                                               C
And the sign said "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
              C    C/B Am
And tenement halls"
      C               G         Am
And whispered in the sounds of silence
