There Are No Cats In America chords by James Horner

PAPA MOUSEKEWITZ:
    Cm          Dm*
Our family was traveling
Cm                  Gm
Through the snow to Minsk
Cm       Dm*
Suddenly Papa
Cm                 Gm
Saw those huge paw prints
     G#          Gm
When I heard him screaming
  F            Gm
I fainted dead away
G#               D#m
And I woke up an orphan
(no chord)
Oy vey
But...

ALL:
But!
              C          G
But there are no cats in America
        F                      G
And the streets are paved with cheese
             C          G
Oh there are no cats in America
   F   -    Dsus4    -  C
So set your mind at ease

ITALIAN MOUSE:
Ma la cosa terrible
Que esiste in la patria mia
If you think things were bad in Russia
You should see things in my country:

    C                  G
The times were hard in Sicily
   G#          G
We had no provolone
    F            D#
The Don he was a tabby
       D                    G
With a taste for my brother Tony
     C            G
When Mama went to plead for him
    G#                G
The Don said he would see her
    F               D#
We found her rosary on the ground
(no chord)
Poor Mama mia
But...

ALL:
              C          G
But there are no cats in America
        F                      G
And the streets are paved with cheese
             C          G
Oh there are no cats in America
   F   -    Dsus4    -  C
So set your mind at ease

IRISH MOUSE:
Sure that's sad, but sadder still...

       Gm        Cm
When I was but a lad
  Dm                 Cm
I lost my true love fair
      Gm            A#        Gsus4      Gm
A calico, he caught us by surprise
     Cm                 Gm
In a flash of teeth and fur
             D#              G#
Her tail was all he left of her
           D#5
'Neath the heather
            D5           Cm -- A# -- Cm -
Is where it tirra-lirra lies
But...

ALL:
              C          G
But there are no cats in America
        F                      G
And the streets are paved with cheese
             C          G
Oh there are no cats in America
        F                      G

But there are no cats in America
        F                      G
