The Lone Bellow - 'Victory Garden' (Live)

'Victory Garden' Listen Now: ffm.to/victorygarden
"Sometimes writing a song is like planting a garden; a small act of hope with creative seeds that will grow - providing comfort and strength through overwhelming grief.
This song was our response to the Covenant tragedy that struck our community on March 27, 2023. We’ve partnered with Voices for a Safer Tennessee, a nonprofit (501c3 & 501c4) to donate all of the money generated from the song to fuel their advocacy to make our state a safer place for everyone."

Lyrics:
Mockingbird morning dew
Another day bright and new
There’s a prayer that I carry with me
To be kind to be meek
To love my enemies
To keep hope in the face of darkness
So we sow the seeds in our victory garden
Hands in the earth
So the heart doesn’t harden
The cries of our children
Won’t soon be forgotten
Each one a flower in our victory garden
For the rain for the sun
For the hardships that come
We will carry this burden together
To be strong for the weak
Song for those who can’t speak
Hand in hand no matter the weather
So we sow the seeds in our victory garden
Hands in the earth
So the heart doesn’t harden
The cries of our children
Won’t soon be forgotten
Each one a flower in our victory garden
I remember the day I saw innocence fade
Saw her tears through the glass in the window
Of the bus that was parked, shots were still firing off
Oh god who are we truly defending
So we sow the seeds in our victory garden
Hands in the earth
So the heart doesn’t harden
The cries of our children
Won’t soon be forgotten
Each one a flower in our victory garden
Rows and rows and rows of roses
Rows and rows and rows of roses
Each one a flower in our victory garden

IDK how you keep writing songs when you have so many hits that get ignored. You guys are the best and original which is so hard to find

My favorite moment ever at a concert is Brian playing a snippet of thunder road in tribute to recording at roy orbison's home

What is the four-string guitar? Is it custom-made or could I buy one somewhere?

[@tyler-morrison]

I’m pretty sure it’s a Wailing resonator mandolin
