Disappear from you hometown
Go and find the people that you know
Show them all you good parts
Leave town when bad ones start to show
Go and wed a woman
A pretty girl that you've never met
Make sure she knows you love her well
But don't make any other promises
The weight of lies will bring you down
And follow you to every town
Cause nothing happens here that doesn't happen there
So when you run make sure you run
To something and not away from
Cause lies don't need an aeroplane to chase you anywhere
I once heard the worse thing
A man could do is draw a hungry crowd
Tell everyone his name, pride, and confidence
But leaving out his doubt
I'm not sure I bought those words
When I was young I knew most everything
These words have never met so much to anyone
As they now mean to me
The weight of lies will bring you down
And follow you to every town
Cause nothing happens here that doesn't happen there
So when you run make sure you run
To something and not away from
Cause lies don't need an aeroplane to chase you down

I lot of people on YT talk about how great old music is and how there's no good new music.
I am one of those people, sort of.
These guys, and especially this song, are one of the exceptions.
Thanks for the post.
still lovin this song in 2022!!!
my favorite song from them. Never knew a stand up Bass could make that sound.
Genuine.....pure.....honest....American Music
It take you to that one place, you know that sober place. love it.
I'm so in love with this song and this band!! Amazing, original heartfelt music!
I love the Avett Bros. I live on the West Coast and they hardly ever come here. This crowd makes me sad. I'd give anything to see them and not have to pay an arm and a leg.
I've seen one on UA-cam that seemed to be either a corporate party or sorority party, but the crowd really doesn't want to be there.
this is the kind of show i want to catch. one where i could walk right up to the stage. hopefully just once i'll be able to make one!
gosh i love these guys!! pure out amazing
oh how I love this song!
awesome lyrics...really awesome
sooo much truth..what a beautiful video..thanks for posting justinweihs!
I love this song but also have mixed feelings about it. I was betrayed by my so called best friend from childhood and he was the one who showed me this song.
Bob is so fucking cool
No reason , like this version a lot !
Wow, this version kicks ass. The studio version needs that hopping bass line.
you want it. The studio version NEEDS nothing.
well done!
mountain village, right outside of blue mesa by lift 1. hells yea. telluride rules and so do the avett brothers.
America...fuck yea.
@creeloebelle Perfect description!
This video and performance is great but the crowd doesn't look too enthused to be seeing such an amazing band.
Is that whoopi goldberg playing the cello?
i fucking love the avett brothers. but i dont think i could handle the swaying crowd business. what dorks. i'd be jumping around like im at a rock concert.
Adriane Meredith. They hire swayers to get the crowd going. 😆
The parts in between the vocals at the start sound awful, sorry
Isnt very good
