    Tennessee Whiskey " is a country song written by Dean Dillon and Linda Hargrove. It was originally recorded by American country music artist and Outlaw Country King David Allan Coe, who took it to #77 on the charts in 1981. Country King "George Jones" recoorded this song in 1983, taking it to #2 on Country billboard charts. Chris is fantastic in his rendition. Chris was certified Diamond by the RIAA. This song is very personal. How can one be closer than this to another. Truly, this man is in over his head in love. She is all he needs . The passion runs as deep as the Mississippi. Beautiful job, Chris.
    To Ashton RIP Oct. 2020 at 37 yrs old, this is his song to his love of his life since high school and mother of his baby girl. His night of passing , hit by a car while on his bike, his voice told his love in her car driving home at the same moments of his passing, "Don't take this road home, Sunny. You don't need to see this. I love you." This song played over and over in her car. She listened to his request in tears. She knew something went wrong. and took a side route. He died on that Georgia hwy. He was a guitarist/ musician and singer. This was their song. His love for her is described in perfection in this song, Tennessee Whiskey. Music is in us. Songs hold meaning, precious and beautiful . My eyes tear to this song. I hold this song double close.
    LYRICS TENNESSEE WHISKEY Used to spend my nights out in a bar room
    Liquor was the only love I've known
    But you rescued me from reachin' for the bottom
    And brought me back from being too far gone
    You're as smooth
    As Tennessee whiskey
    You're as sweet
    As strawberry wine
    You're as warm
    As a glass of brandy
    And honey, I stay stoned on your love
    All the time
    I've looked for love in all the same old places
    Found the bottom of the bottles always dry
    But when you poured out your heart, I didn't waste it
    'Cause there's nothing like your love to get me high
    You're as smooth
    As Tennessee whiskey
    You're as sweet
    As strawberry wine
    You're as warm
    As a glass of brandy
    And honey, I stay stoned on your love
    All the time
    You're as smooth
    As Tennessee whiskey
    You're as sweet
    As strawberry wine
    You're as warm
    As a glass of brandy
    Honey, I stay stoned on your love
    All the time
    You're as smooth
    As Tennessee whiskey
    Tennessee Whiskey
    Tennessee Whiskey
    You're as smooth
    As Tennessee Whiskey
    Tennessee whiskey

      This is more Gospel, Bluesy, Rhythm and Blues than anything remotely resembling Country. The trajectories were/are as parallel as they were segregated. "Country" music is associated with "white" Southerners whereas this is clearly, historically not branches off the same cultural tree.
      By Southern, in this instance, it was Black Southern...which was always distinct from what was/is popularly known as "Country".

      @@aceboogie6689 : It may be all of those things but it cannot be removed from Country as it’s heart and soul. Chris Stapleton writes songs that display the many layers of this great form of music. You have a much too narrow view of Country, If it makes you feel better we can call “Tennessee Whiskey” Country Rhythm and Blues. But, to say that it isn’t “anything remotely resembling Country” shows a strong bias against Country music. (Can you give me an example of “Black Southern” so that I can see what you mean?) I am sure that the 95% of Chris’ fans that are into Country music will disagree with your awkward take.
      Note: Chris has received 10 Academy of Country Music Awards; 14 Country Association awards, and was named the Artist-Songwriter of the decade by the Academy of Country Music. In 2017 he won the Grammy for the Best Country Album.

    No matter what kind of music you like...when we hear someone with true talent, it doesn't matter the genre of music, we recognize talent, soul, passion, and authenticity. This song is reminiscent of the love songs of the 60s and 70s (Motown) in which they sing of what love does and feels like. This song was written long ago by country music legend Merle Haggard (way before Beyonce was born). It's not like the music of today, which is more about sex. Youngsters, if you want a good woman play them songs like this. Most people in the USA consider Chris Stapleton as a country singer, but he is so much more! This man sings with soul, passion, and pure heartbreak. He has pure Soul in that gritty voice with an incredible blend of Country, Blues, R&B, and even some jazz drumming from his drummer. Loving the band, especially the harmonica. I think all music would be improved with the addition of a harmonica but that's just me. His runs are all different, and yet, each sounds amazing. I am not much a fan of country music but this man will bring me to country singing like that. There is another country, R&B combo that hits me in the heart and soul. Please listen to it and do a reaction, I think you'll love it. "Conway Twitty ft. Sam Moore - A Rainy Night in Georgia". You'll love me after listening to it.
