  My love is in america
                   D
  And I miss him tonight
          G
  So much so
    C                    Em          G
  I feel like taking the money we've saved
                   D
  And catching the flight
                   G
  And catching the flight
  
  G
  The children are sleeping well
                D
  And I'm on my own
       G      C                   
  Even though I've read his letters
  G                    D               G
  Again and again, I'm alone, I'm all alone
  
          D7                              G
  But the money I've sent home is barely enough
             D7                   G
  There's an ocean that keeps us apart
            D                                    G   G/B  Em
  I've been lonely from home, but I mustn't give up
  C                      D7
  What about this aching heart?

  Johnny come home, I need you tonight
               D          C  G/B  D
  I need you tonight
  
  
   My love is in america
   But it's hard to go out
   Just because certain asumptions are made
   When your man's not about
   When your man's not about
  
   My love is in america
   And I'm not so sure
   Maybe I rather him here in my arms
   And us to be poor
   And us to be poor
  
            D7                   G
  Still the money I send home is barely enough
              D7                  G
  There's an ocean that keeps us apart
