Tim McGraw is releasing a new album this week called 'Standing Room Only,' but fans shouldn't expect any of the songs to weigh in on heavy topics.

He's also been critical of Donald Trump at times, and he's expressed his stance on gun control, telling Billboard in 2017,"There is some common sense that's necessary when it comes to gun control. They want to make it about the Second Amendment every time it's brought up. It's not about the Second Amendment . . . Military weapons should not be in the hands of civilians.

on McGraw's new album, called"Standing Room Only," they can expect to hear a heartfelt song about his daughter Gracie and her move across the country. "Nashville CA/L.A. Tennessee" is the name of a song on the album that he co-wrote with Bob Minner, his guitar player, and Lori McKenna, a singer-songwriter who also added vocals to the track.

He told the story of how he drove Gracie to Los Angeles, helped her move her things into her new home and then hesitated to leave."She puts both hands on my shoulders and says, ‘Dad, I’ve got this,’" he said emotionally."She gave me a big hug and I said I love her and when I was driving back by myself I called Bob and we were swapping stories about our kids growing up, and he called Lori and we started working on the song.

Elsewhere in the interview, he said,"Throughout my career, my records have gravitated toward those kinds of songs. Stories about life. We all fail. We all have our terrible moments. And we’re going to have moments and we’re going to do the wrong thing, say the wrong thing, be politically incorrect from time to time.""But all you can do is get up the next morning and try to do the next best thing.
