WASHINGTON — Due to technical difficulty with the military band audio during the Inauguration, country music star Carrie Underwood was forced to sing 'America the Beautiful' a cappella. 

She calmly looked around the room and said, "if you know the words, help me out here."   Those fortunate to get inside the Capitol Rotunda joined her.
