A D G A
G F#m Em7 D G D G
[Verse]
D G Called for this place with my working hands D G Sea crossing turn my inside A Em7 Left to the sound of the marching band D A Em We sail at the change of the tide
[Verse]
D G When I saw Mary, her father said D G He was sailing across the deep blue A Em7 Brighter new days in a promised land D A Em She would be going there too
[Chorus]
D G So I keep her in my mind D G There's a picture on my wall A Em7 Oh, my love is in America D A Em D G D G My love could be anywhere at all
[Verse]
D G Oh, how we cried on that darkest night D G Everyone leaving the land A Em7 The old generation just sitting tight D A Em And all of us young bucks with plans
[Verse]
D G I'm using the name of another man D G To get a job here for more pay A Em7 I'll walk these strange streets for a better life D A Em London's the place, so they say
[Chorus]
D G And I keep her in my mind D G There's a picture on my wall A Em7 Oh, my love, she's in America D A Em My love could be anywhere at all E A Anywhere at all..

[Verse]
E A The music's the one thing that's travelled well E A We meet up and play from our soul B A The kitchen, the work yard and the Seven Bells E B A Gives us a glimpse of our homes
[Verse]
E A Maybe I'll make it to New York state E A Maybe I'll just up and go B A Maybe I'll get back to my hometown E B A See if there's work, I don't know
[Verse]
E A I sent many a letter to no avail E A Her silence is deafening to me B A Maybe she lives with another man E B A Crossing the new country
[Chorus]
E A Till I know, I keep her in my mind E A There's a picture on my wall B A Oh, my love is in America E B A E My love could be anywhere at all...
