CAPO 2nd Fret 
  
       G                                  C

Her eyes were so warm and inviting, 
      G                        D
Like steamy diner windows on a cold winter 
 day 
    G                    C
The November air was so biting 
    G                         D
We could see our breath in my old Chevrolet 
C           G          D
Taking the longest way home I could find 
       C              G              D
It was cold, but she loved me, and I had to stop time 
         C            G          D            G
There's nothing like falling in love in America 
Cadd9      G       Cadd9
G                              C

Well, I've never yet been to Paris 
          G                     D
And I've never been one to like fancy 
 perfume 
          G                      C
But I've held hands with Jessica Harris 
    G                            D
And walked by the creek with the red bud in bloom 
      C          G            D
Those writers in Cosmo, they don't know a  
thing 
    C                G          D
And France ain't got nothin' on Kentucky in 
 Spring 
            C             G           D
And there's nothing like falling in love in  
     G
America 
Cadd9     G     Cadd9

(Chorus) 
 D    C                G          C
America. Lift up your lonely and broken 
    G               C
The hopeless still hopin' 
 D    C              G                C
America  Heal up the hearts that are achin 
       G         C
Those yet to be taken 
         G              C           D
There's nothing like falling in love in 
       G
 America

  G                          C
A dance at a High School gymnasium 
                  G                           D
The kids line the walls like they're facing a firing squad 
        G                     C
They're waiting for transfiguration 
   G                        D
Or some kind of sign from a merciful God 
      C                  G               D
If I thought that they'd listen (and they haven't, so far) 
    C             G             D
I'd tell them how beautiful and bright they all are 
            C             G          D
And there's nothing like falling in love in 
      G
America 
Cadd9    G     Cadd9
   G                             C
I know it all comes down to perspective 
             G                D
And there's so many beautiful things we can't see 
         G                       C
But our vision just needs resurrected 
        G                        D
We take so much for granted when so much comes free 
      C            G              D
And I know it may seem like it's all upside down 
        C      G         D
But if we ever needed a love song, it's now 
            C             G          D
And there's nothing like falling in love in  
     G
America 
Cadd9     G      Cadd9

(Chorus) 
D  C                G           C
America. Lift up your lonely and broken 
    G               C
The hopeless still hopin' 
 D    C              G                C
America  Heal up the hearts that are achin 
       G         C
Those yet to be taken 
         G              C           D
There's nothing like falling in love 
         G              C           D
There's nothing like falling in love 
         G              C           D
There's nothing like falling in love 

          G
In  America
