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 
 
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 

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
