Capo 3
[Intro]
G
[Verse]
G Em
Harley didn't have no education
C G D
He could hardly read and write
G Em
He was locked into a dead-end occupation
C D
His future didn't look too bright
C G
He worked 18 years on the assembly line
Em G
Just gettin' by with a little bit of overtime
C G Em
And that could be the end of the story of mine
C D
But it's just the beginnin'
G Em
Late one night while he was workin' graveyard
C G D
Harley got himself this big idea
G Em
All he'd have to do is change one little screw
C D
And save millions of dollars a year
C G
So he worked and he saved 'til he could open his own shop
Em G
Money started rollin' in like it wasn't gonna stop
C G Em
So Harley bought a mountain and built a mansion on top
C D
So the losers could see who was winning
[Chorus]
G C G
Only in America
C D D/F# G
With nothin' but a dream
Em D
Only in America
G
Where every man's a king
[Verse]
G Em
First Harley's daughter Janice found a guru
C G D
She gave him everything she owned
G Em
Then Harley Junior joined some kind of rock band
C D
And walked around all day about half stoned
C G
His wife watched TV all the time 'cause she got bored
Em G
Then one day she found a TV preacher she adored
C G Em
And she gave all of Harley's hard-earned money to the Lord
C G Em
Harley started drinkin' wound up in Betty Ford
C D
To see if he could buy a happy ending
[Verse]
G Em
Then some kid who worked in Harley's factory
C G D
He got himself this big idea
G Em
Figured out how to do it with computers
C D
Drove Harley out of business in a year
C G
Now Harley's back workin' the assembly line
Em G
Just gettin' by with a little bit of overtime
C G Em
But don't count Harley out 'cause he ain't the quittin' kind
C G Em
He stares at that computer with one thing on his mind
C D
How to make them things more user friendly
[Chorus] (x2)
G C
I've loved enough to know
G C
A heartache when I see one coming
G C
Been down this road before
G Em G
I've loved enough to know
[Ending]
G
