I recorded myself playing this note for note 5 times. I came in at 2min 56 to 58 seconds. He is at 3.33. It is tough to play it that slow, but he's the pro.
One of the most underrated Artist/Singers of our time ... your time will come soon enough Colter, keep it going. Your music keeps my mind in happiness while working around in my garage. We're listening!
Prayin' on the north wind Lead me to my door Thumbing through my green backs Swearin' I made more Some cruel nightly cycle Leaves me cryin' on a motel floor But I don't cry for you anymore For many a dark hour I look up to the sky Many unkind thoughts are laid Upon my hazy eyes Sometimes I get to thinkin' Why wait around to die But I don't think of you So I get by Every day it seems My whole damn life's just a codeine dream But I don't dream of you anymore The sun is gone away now Green grass turns to brown Every December gets a little bit harder Lay that bottle down It's more than just the weather That plagues this prairie town But I won't be seeing you When I come 'round Every day it seems My whole damn life's just a codeine dream But I don't dream of you anymore
I always think of my wife when I listen to this song.. she passed away 2.5 yrs ago. ."My whole damn life's just a codeine dream But I don't dream of you anymore..."
My son just introduced me to Colter Wall. I'm not usually a fan of country and western music, but I love Colter Wall's performance. Love his guitar playing. Find his voice hypnotic. Just love a number of his songs I've heard and have to play them over and over. He is a major major talent! Thank you Colter Wall!
Outstanding!! Colter Wall is the "New King of Country"! His delivery is pure honesty to our ears, just pure soul and truth are within him. Like Brendon Leary said,, "Three chords, the truth, and a voice of gold"!! Thank you Colter for following your dreams, making the world happy and a better place!
The 22 people who disliked this song or singer. Does not know what good music is. That's crazy for them to put that. Dudes only in his early twenties and is going to be the best country singer and songwriter we have seen in a longtime.
You play so beautifully!! I love your sound and lyrics! I saw an interview where you said lyrics are telling a story. I believe that's the way it should be. Hope I can see you perform some day! I play guitar and consider myself a guitar picker. Learning your songs has been so fun!
Dude the studio version and this version are the same length. That means his internal metronome is amazing

Meanwhile in 2020, he’s got 20,000,000+ listens on spotify😄
We will look back and say there were a few stars we forgot to count
Or he's got a metronome In his ear 🤔
This man carries the same burden you could feel in Townes’ voice... his spirit lives on. RIP, keep on keeping on Colter. You’re a legend sir.
Three chords, the truth, and a voice of gold.
Sometimes less IS more
Like gold, heavy yet soft
Old soul wrapped in young skin. God bless Ya!
This guy is unbelievable.
Prayin' on the north wind
Lead me to my door
Thumbing through my green backs
Swearin' I made more
Some cruel nightly cycle
Leaves me cryin' on a motel floor
But I don't cry for you anymore
For many a dark hour
I look up to the sky
Many unkind thoughts are laid
Upon my hazy eyes
Sometimes I get to thinkin'
Why wait around to die
But I don't think of you
So I get by
Every day it seems
My whole damn life's just a codeine dream
But I don't dream of you anymore
The sun is gone away now
Green grass turns to brown
Every December gets a little bit harder
Lay that bottle down
It's more than just the weather
That plagues this prairie town
But I won't be seeing you
When I come 'round
Every day it seems
My whole damn life's just a codeine dream
But I don't dream of you anymore
Nathan MacCumbee One small correction, I think that he says “to lay that bottle down”
Thanks bro
I always think of my wife when I listen to this song..
she passed away 2.5 yrs ago.
."My whole damn life's just a codeine dream

@@mercenarymike1397 I’m sorry to hear that man
Thanks.

Just a man with a guitar, an epic beard and guitar, telling a story. A subtle tribute to Townes as well in the 2nd verse. Brilliant.
Townes hardly underrated
Killer voice, guitar player, and songwriter, a musician cannot offer more.
Colter take care of yourself. You are a poet and a troubador.

This is the real deal folks!
Dam Colt, she got you good didn’t she? We got fences to mend out past the back forty… we best get to it. See you cowboy.
This is so beautiful and sad, as well. His playing, along with that wonderful guitar sound, is too moving for words.
Best version of this song on UA-cam. Trust me, I've run experiments.
Hit that like button if you think his music goes perfect with RDR 2!
This beauty has me eternally shooketh. Ughhhh
It’s like Mississippi John Hurt with Johnny Cash and a hint of Lefty Frizzell. I’m loving it!
Listening to this in 2021👌
That voice. 💜
Every days just a covid dream

Gawd I love this kid!

This song breaks my heart and I can’t get enough
This is like Townes Van Zandt reincarnated. Jus tremendously beautiful, thank god for the old outlaws inspiration.
Yep. Amazing and beautiful. Thanks again, Frank McShane.

Gorgeous 👏🏾👏🏿👏🏻👏🏼💚💖🇧🇷
Southern California is listening ✌
Colters soul is a century old I guess the universe Get it correct once in a wile HELL YE
Perfect smoking a cigar song looking out into the deep abyss
Townes told a story about writing a song in his sleep. He was at Guy Clarks house and they were all sick, taking codeine cough syrup.
Phenomenal
boy oh boy, wowee!
kind of references Townes Van Zant's Waiting Around to Die
Sometimes it seems my whole damn life is a just a codeine dream...
got a very townes van zandt vibe to it
One of the drugs I am really hooked on right now because of a L4S1 lumbar spine in done in. I hope one day when I get surgery I can get away from it.
does this guy channel Johnny Cash, or what? love it.
Never would have occurred to me but great observation. I can totally hear Cash there.
Wow
You can hear the TVZ clear as day
Absolutely. That was my first thought
How is this a cover or just the way it sounds like do you guys get some townes vibes from him
Blaze also.
Damn kid where did you come from😎
Traci Hill from heaven with hell just below
he came from swift current, Saskatchewan
And I think of my late wife Laura, when I hear this song
Sorry to hear that brother. I think of my brother, who died of a heroin overdose a few years back whenever I listen to this. Keep your head up
Wish google play had more of your stuff pluse i wish the stuff google play did have was just the acustic without the backup crap
This is a tribute to townes
How
@@aronsimpson3444 this is a townes song. He wrote it.
@@TrailbossEd i can't find it on youtube
@@aronsimpson3444 Colter wrote it. Gives me chills every time I listen.
Please tell me how to play this
Are we 100% sure he's not a blood relative of towns van zandt or blaze Foley
Modern Day Willie Nelson
can't.fake.conviction
I feel like I’ve been smoked.
Not bad for a canadian
This guy has a direct line to my tear ducts....
Story Songs.
Perfect
