Verse(G-C-G-C-D) Bridge( C-G (F-C-D) Chorus([F-C-G]F-C-D)
Verse
I love making music
I love making jokes
I love hanging out
I love down to earth folks
I love good food
I love my car
I love makin' music
I love my guitar
I love my dogs
I love my life
I love my house
I love my wife
I love my family
I love Mom and Dad
I love feeling grateful
for all that I have
I love my country
from sea to shining sea
I love living in America
I love being free
I love fresh air
I love the sunny day's
I love my country
I love the USA
Bridge
it's the state of the union
I have the right to say
everybody thinks they have the answer
I think we've lost our way
Sometimes we have to give a little
make some compromise
I think we should be humble
that's how we win the prize
Chorus
The state of the union is in trouble
nowadays that's what you're gonna find
The state of the union is in trouble
it's not just a state of mind
Last Chorus
The state of the union is in trouble
that's why we gonna fight
The state of the union is in trouble
won't give up until we get it right
