Here it is the best I can compile from the internet and keep it simple in general.
Seems to be best played using bar chords on the G & A. Enjoy
D F# C#m A E G A Bm
D F# C#m A
There is unrest in the forest; there is trouble with the trees
E G A Bm
For the Maples want more sunlight and the Oaks ignore their pleas
D F# C#m A E G A Bm
D A Bm F# G
A Bm G D A
The trouble with the Maples and they're quite convinced they're right
A Bm G D A
They say the Oaks are just too lofty and they grab up all the light.
A Bm G D A
But the Oaks can't help their feelings if they like the way they're made
F# G A G F# E
And they wonder why the Maples can't be happy in their shade
D F# C#m A
There is trouble in the forest, and the creatures all have fled
E G A Bm
as the Maples scream Oppression and the Oaks just shake their heads
D F# C#m A E G A Bm
(it goes into a bunch of craziness here in 5/4 time that I'm going to C American girls, G American guys,
We’ll always Am stand up and salute, we’ll always E recognize
When we F see old glory flyin there’s a C lot of men dead
So G we can sleep in peace at night when we lay down our head.
My daddy C served in the Army where he G lost his right eye
But he flew a Am flag out in our yard till the E day that he died
He wanted my F Mother, my brother, my C sister and me
To grow G up and live happy in the land of the free.
Now this C nation that I love has fallen G under attack
A mighty Am sucker punch came flyin’ in from E somewhere in the back
‘Soon as F we could see clearly thru our C big black eye
Man we G lit up your world like the 4th of July.
Hey, Uncle F Sam put your name at the G top of his list
And the C statue of liberty started Am shakin’ her fist
And the F eagle will fly and it’s G gonna be hell
When C you hear Mother Freedom start a- Am ringin’ her bell
And it’ll F feel like the whole wide G world is rainin’ down on Am you Am7
Ah, F brought to you courtesy G of the Red, White and C Blue.
Break
G Am E F C G G7
Ah, C justice will be served and the G battle will rage
This Am big dog will fight when you E rattle his cage
You’ll be F sorry that you messed with the C U.S of D A.
Cause we’ll put a G boot in your ass, it’s the American Way
Hey, Uncle F Sam put your name at the G top of his list
And the C statue of liberty started Am shakin’ her fist
And the F eagle will fly and it’s G gonna be hell
When C you hear Mother Freedom start a- Am ringin’ her bell
And it’ll F feel like the whole wide G world is rainin’ down on Am you
Ah, F brought to you courtesy G of the Red, White and C Blue.
G Oo Am ooh, F of the Red, White and C Blue,
G Oo Am oh F of my Red White and C Blue. out.
Instead I play the D A Bm F# G progression again)
A Bm G D A
So the Maples formed a union and demanded equal rights
A Bm G D A
These Oaks are just too greedy, we will make them give us light
A Bm G D A
Now there's no more Oak oppression, for they passed a noble law
F# G A
And the trees are all kept equal by hatchet, axe, and saw
