Intro:
G


Verse 1:
G
If a song could be president

We'd hum on Election Day
                        Am           D
The gospel choir would start to sway
                     G
And we'd all have a part to play
G

Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -

The First Lady would free her hips

Pull a microphone to her lips
                       Am               D
Break our hearts with rhythm and blues
                   G
Steve Earle would anchor the news
                 C
We'd vote for a melody
                      G
Pass it around on an MP3
                       D    D7
All our best foreign policy
                   G      G7
Would be built on harmony
                   C
If a song could be president
                   G
We'd fly a jukebox to the moon
                          D
All our founding fathers 45's
                       C          D
Lightnin' Hopkins and Patsy Cline
                    G
If a song could be president

Verse 2:
G
If a song could be president

We could all add another verse
                        Am      D
Life would teach us to rehearse
                 G
Till we found a key change
                  Em
Break out of this minor key

Half truths and hypocrisy
                     Am                    D
We wouldn't need an underachiever-in-chief
                    G
If a song could be president
                        C
We'd make Neil Young a Senator
                         G
Even though he came from Canada
                    D       D7
Emmy Lou would be Ambassador
                     G
World leaders would listen to her
                              C
They would show us where our country went wrong
                            G
Strum their guitars on the White House lawn
                          D  D
John Prine would run the FBI
                         C            D
All the criminals would laugh and cry
                    G
If a song could be president

Outro:
C     G     D     C D G
Ooooh ooooh ooooh
