[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]
G     C      G
Only in America

      C      D    D/F#   G
With nothin' but  a    dream

         Am        D
Only in America

                    G
Where every man's a king

G     C      G
Only in America

      C      D    D/F#   G
With nothin' but  a    dream

         Am        D
Only in America

                    G
Where every man's a king
