 fall for a poor boy like me

Verse 2:

        Only in America
        Can a kid who's washing cars
        Take a giant step and reach 
right up and touch the stars
        Only in America
        Could a dream like this come
 true
         A               G        
        Could a guy like me start 
      A           B           E
with nothing and end up with you
