                G                         D/F#                         Em                         D  
I was ten, I was thin, I was playing first base
                  G                      D/F#                 Em                      A  
with a secondhand glove and dirt on my face
        G                      D/F#  
In nowhere, Virginia
Em                      D/F#                    C                         G                         A  
Who'd ever figure that kid in the yard would go very far
                  G      D/F#                            Em                 A  
It was 419 Lakewood , had no silverspoons
                     G                         D/F#                         Em                              A  
Just an old beat up upright that played out of tune
                     G                         D/F#                    Em                    A  
Now I'm singin' and living the life that I love
                        C                         G                                                            A  
And when I count my blessings I thank God I was
          D                 Em  GA  
An American child
          D                 Em  GA  
An American child
                  Bm                                      A  
'Cause dreams can grow wild
                  G                    A            D  
Born inside an American child
Seven pounds, three ounces, she's got my nose
                    Bm  F#mEm  A  
                                        Bm  F#mEm  A  
                                        Bm  F#mEm  A  
                                        D/F#  GA  
(Bridge)
        Bm                         F                                      C              F  
My grandfather would have been eighty today
          Bm                    A                                                    D                 Em  GA  
But in '45 he fell down beside an American child
(Chorus)
