Kinda wierd....cause im cryin and smilin at same time...my mom passed away a couple yrs ago..her name is virgie..first time ive heard this song...momma this ones for u. Love and miss u badly...
My grandma's name was Virginia and we called her Gramma Virgie. She passed away while I was in the ICU following open heart surgery. I was 17 and the only thing I could think or talk about back then was being a cattle rancher. She'd smile and tell me about granddad and his big herd. Well, I've got my herd now and I'm raising show cattle on the farm she and granddad built together. I must not have grieved properly when she passed because this came on one day while clipping for a show and I broke down sobbing in front of the college kids I have working for me. It was so cathartic. Idk why I'm telling a bunch of strangers but this feels good too. Tyler may be a wild mountain man, but he's a good boy.
Stapleton is amazing. Broken halos, millionaire are my two favs. But he aint got shit on this man. Just a guitar and a soul on display. Rest in peace codys grandma.
I'm reading Hillbilly Elegy and it mentions how "holler" people called their grandparents Mamaw and Papaw only there. But Mamaw and Papaw was used in Texas too. Country people-ranchers. Never be the likes of them again.
@@tcm6756 not just Texas and mountain people. I think just country people in general. I'm from Mississippi and lots of people call their grandparents maw maw and paw paw. That's what we called my grandparents.
I have been overseas for 6 years almost 7 now. I lost my grandma and grandpa. They were KY miners and farmers. I’m a KY boy. When he hits the last verse and talks about seeing her in the pines I cry - anytime, every time. Good bless US we’re so divided. If we could all listen to this and forget politics- snowflakes and boomers and just remember true love me might be able to save our nation
That's the line that got me, too. Sometimes it's Vergie that brings tears to my eyes....but, at other times, it's Cody. Everyone needs a Cody. I lost my 3 best friends within a few short years. Yes, my three best friends. We had been inseparable. When I hear Tyler mention his best friends, it rips memories from my chest and I wish I had a time machine. Everyone needs a Cody.
This man stumbled over a couple of words in the improvised story lead up of this song and then delivers maybe one of the best live performances of a beautiful song.
If you see him live you would understand the intro. He doesn’t talk much and wants to get to the music without being bothered. One of the best shows I’ve seen.
I can’t stop listening to everything that bares your name Tyler Childers. You’re an incredible musician and I thank the good Lord I stumbled upon your music!
My sons turned me onto this after my lovely wife of 43years and 10months passed in April of 2021. They all said this described her to a t. She always said it's ok their just boys let them be. God how I miss her. This brings tears everytime I listen, but your song gives peace . May God bless you Tyler. Your music is all spot on. Much needed for these times. REALLY beautiful down home music, the way it should be!
It's like this song was written for me and my brothers. We all played this song yesterday and no one had dry eyes. We were raised by a mountain beauty for sure, born in 1921. She seen us all as saints but the only saint was & still is her... great song!
My mountain beauty was born in 1914 she raised 9 boys who were all saints in her eye & God called my mountain beauty in 1995 my heart still aches over the loss of my/our mountain beauty rip lovely lady
I lost my mom a couple years ago when I was 19. She owns a music school. She was in the corner of every recording session and lesson. I miss her so much. I can never make it through this song just yet.
I was born and raised in Pikeville , KY. My Mamaw was from Virgie. She was an amazing woman. Died and buried right there on Island Creek. Miss her every day.
I’m at work In the break room and I had to catch a tear when he said “Can’t you see her up there Cody”! This hit hardddddd. I have my Gma name on my right arm. And every time I take a sip of whiskey, it’s like she’s saying “boy...I know you better than this”.
My brother Cody and I lost our mom 5 years ago. She’s from Kentucky and we grew up in a town called Peytonsville, Tn. We cried so hard hearing this song today. It’s so similar to our story too. Thank you so much for sharing this song w the world and hope your friend’s grandma and our mom have found each other looking down on their Codys
Mr. Can you make folks cry when you play and sing, have you paid your dues, can you moan the blues, can you bend them guitar strings......... Yes, yes he can. The true measure of genuine God given talent is evident if people are moved by your passion, if you can touch their hearts deep down inside , then you have it, if your music doesn't have any effect on them emotionally, then you don't. Tyler has it.
I would love to hear the story about their initial reaction to this song. I’m sure he did it acoustic for them and i’m sure they cried way more than I did my first time listening.
Tonight I’m listening to sad music reliving the “Glory days” in my mind with the aid of some of my favorite bourbon. I’m a combat vet that’s lost a lot of good ol’ buddies. This song hit and my German Sheppard jumped up next to me on the couch because I think he knows what this song does to me. So here’s to the folks that aren’t with me anymore, and to that goofy German Shepherd that keeps me level these days. Miss em and I guarantee that I’ll miss this old dog when he’s gone. Stay blessed friends!
My son just dedicated this song to this me, and I've never listened to country music before...I cried. Then I cried some more. I thought all those "heathens" had forgotten me...
My great great-grandma just passed away this past tuesday, her birthday is today and she would've been 93. She was one heck of a woman, and this song really reminds me of her and always will❤
Back before these calloused hands did all this work We used to sit up at the flats Acting like we'd live forever Getting high and skipping class I reckon we were heathens But in her eyes we were saints Now you're calling all the boys home As heavens angels carry her away I will follow you to Virgie Although it hurts me so To lay to rest this mountain beauty That the Lord's called home Can't you see her up in glory I can see her through the pines Back when all us boys were trying To make sense of all these strings I can see her in the corner Singing along to all our crazy dreams I will follow you to Virgie Although it hurts me so To lay to rest this mountain beauty That the Lord's called home Can't you see her up in glory I can see her through the pines I will follow you to Virgie Caise that's what us boys are for To help you out when you get weary And you cant go alone Can't you see her up there, Cody? I can see her through the pines Saying boys be good
We called my grandma Virgie, she passed away of cancer last year. Everyone who met her said she was a saint and didn’t understand how a person could be so pure and kind. Currently balling. Thank you for writing this song.
I remember the first time I introduced this young man on stage , he was doing cover songs mostly Bob Dylan stuff and then he done a original song. I knew that he had all the ability and just needed the break to make it. So proud to say I know him.
My grandmother was born in 1940 and she’s a literal angel on earth. I won’t be able to handle the day she passes. What a song, what a man, what a voice. Such an amazing song and great performance! Blessed to be able to hear it!
I literally have no words.....if this dont hit you in the feels, well, you must not have any. This young man has so much going on for him, but God Damn that voice is off the chain. His and Stapletons are hands down the best voices that ive heard in my 39 years on this earth.....Kentucky is owning the music scene right now with Tyler, Chris stapleton, and Sturgill Simpson
My grandpa recently passed and I’ve listened to/sang along to this almost everyday since. I sing it with everything I have, sobbing, while I think of him. Thank you Tyler❤️ your music is a blessing, it’s really helped me deal with this. I loved my grandpa so much, I miss him so much
I discovered this song a year ago. Gosh I miss my mawmaw. Im 46 now , but in my teens and 20’s there was a group of us that she put up with, feed, loved and supported. She passed 5 years ago but something about this song makes her love on. Thanks for singing to the deep parts of my heart.
We all have people we lose over time. And some are sweet like Cody’s grandma and some run down a different path, but both hurt the exact same. I hope you guys can all find your Virgie and relate. I can see them up in glory every day
Back before these calloused hands and all this work We used to sit up at the flats Actin' like we'd live forever Gettin' high and skippin' class Yeah, I reckon we were heathens But in her eyes we were saints Now you're callin' all the boys home 'Cause heaven's angels carried her away So I will follow you to Virgie Although it hurts me so To lay to rest this mountain beauty That the Lord's called home I can see her up in glory I can see her through the pines Back when all us boys were tryin' To make sense of all these strings I can see her in the corner Singin' along to all our crazy dreams So I will follow you to Virgie Although it hurts me so To lay to rest this mountain beauty That the Lord's called home I can see her up in glory I can see her through the pines I will follow you to Virgie 'Cause that's what us boys are for To help you out when you get weary And you can't go no more And can't you see her up there, Cody I can see her through the pines Sayin' "Boys be good"
I’m from the mountain tops of Colombia, South America, but moved to the states young. NC Appalachia in fact. It’d been tough to spend time with my grandmother countries away and I finally had to say goodbye to her a day ago. Thank you so much this beautiful song, she always loved the English music id show her when I visit and I’m sure she woulda loved this one the same❤️
It took 14yrs to find the right song for when I think about my grandma. I hope Tyler doesn’t slow down. He’s got the best voice out there right now and I LOVE the way he writes his shit. The way he describes shit just... I don’t know man but this motherfucker has got it. Whatever it is. Cheers
My great grandmother passed away today. My father and I traveled 2,100 miles to be able to say goodbye. The whole way there this song was stuck in my head. It’s always made me cry, but today it had me sobbing. Thank you Tyler for such a wonderful and beautiful song.
Amazing lyrics. This guy deserves to have the fame. I'm glad sturgill found him. This song resonates with almost everybody. If you can listen to this and not get a chill, or worst a thumbs down . You are not human, or have never loved anyone before.
I can only imagine when his buddy heard this song for the first time.
Once I heard the story, I cried so hard listening to this song... like 3 min ago.
Yeahbin sure he cried and hugged so much.
This song makes me miss Cody’s grandma for them.
Very much so!
Same

So hard.
Kinda wierd....cause im cryin and smilin at same time...my mom passed away a couple yrs ago..her name is virgie..first time ive heard this song...momma this ones for u. Love and miss u badly...
Rip man, I’m sorry for your loss
Hope you're doing well buddy
My mom passed away about 4 years ago my prayers go out to ya brother. Loosing family is a tough one. Keep ya head up things get better with time
Bearing that pain with you brother Matthew
I hope you are well.
Same here Matthew Morris. I’m glad I’m not the only one.
"Boys be good now"
True words from all our grandmas...
truth
Amen to that, and our granny's/great grandma
This line made me bawl.
That & “If ya need me, y’all know where I’m at”
I want to like this so bad buts it's at 420 likes and I just cant fuck with the rhythm.
As a Cody whose Granny just died, along with every single other thing in this song making sense in our rural life, this hurts and helps.
Same for me man
My grandma's name was Virginia and we called her Gramma Virgie. She passed away while I was in the ICU following open heart surgery. I was 17 and the only thing I could think or talk about back then was being a cattle rancher. She'd smile and tell me about granddad and his big herd.
Well, I've got my herd now and I'm raising show cattle on the farm she and granddad built together.
I must not have grieved properly when she passed because this came on one day while clipping for a show and I broke down sobbing in front of the college kids I have working for me. It was so cathartic.
Idk why I'm telling a bunch of strangers but this feels good too.
Tyler may be a wild mountain man, but he's a good boy.
Bless your heart. Your Granddad and Gramma are proud.
I dont think you might not have grieved properly. I dont know you though. Its probably just love.
Beautiful story!
No need to apologize my Brother!
Your grandmother’s is still Virginia. Thank you sharing and a big hug.
I didn't even know this lady and someones cutting onions in here.

I’m not crying you’re crying
Same here

“I can see her up in glory
I can see her through the pines.”
"saying "boys, be good"..."
So sorry cause that's real life defining shit. All my love to you.
you can honestly hear and feel the pain and emotion in his voice, it’s gets me everytime
Yea I am with you on that. To me this is his best written song, so relatable.
every single time
It.breaks me at 51yrs
No one artist ever makes me cry, but his voice somehow gets me every time
dude thats so true
I gave up on country music. But you sir, have given me hope.
Respect.
thats not country music , that is real lyrics, real voice and soul.....New country music sucks!
@@alyasinski2021 Chris Stapleton is the Savior
Me 2.
Stapleton is amazing. Broken halos, millionaire are my two favs. But he aint got shit on this man. Just a guitar and a soul on display. Rest in peace codys grandma.
chris daniels apples and oranges. Both can be flawless simultaneously... like ladies... a 10 is a 10 my dude hahahah
Everytime he said “can’t you see her up there cody?” It hits me. Proud kentucky boy here, can’t help but think about my mawmaw when I hear this.

Can't you see her up there, Cody? Damn, gutshot.
Exactly what I thought
Ain't that the truth
I was only introduced to this song and Tyler a few days ago. Couldn’t agree with you more. Lump in my throat the first time hearing it!

I listen to this song as loud as I can with tears in my eyes because its that damn beautiful. God bless everyone's Grandma.

I came across him a few weeks ago, and it's all I've listened too.

Cried 3x in the last 24 hrs due to this song. G-ma aint even dead yet, just dreading the day. Thank you for the induced appreciation of her
Oof I called my grandma "g-ma" this hurts this hurts alot. I love u g-ma
Same here shows a different type of appreciation
Love and appreciate her while you can brother, miss my grandmother(s) everyday. It’s a special relationship!
Spend as much time as you can with her brother. I decided to not go to the hospital that week. I've never regretted anything more.
I am a manager in aged care and I saw all my beautiful ladies I care for when I hear this. I am a blubbering mess..
Wow. This song caught me off guard. Gonna need a minute.
Wow!! Heard this on Pandora and was floored. It's like a video plays as you listen to the song.. Well at least in MY mind.
Bigsurjay yup
I know the feelz
Every time.

My grandmother was named Virgie and she was a beautiful Appalachian woman who raised me as a son. This song hits home.
that’s beautiful. i hope you find healing in music. I sure have and Tyler Childers is incredibly talented
beautiful. im very sorry for your loss, i second the above comment. God bless you reader, stay strong; Jesus is coming to take us home
It's like this song was written for me and my brothers. We all played this song yesterday and no one had dry eyes. We were raised by a mountain beauty for sure, born in 1921. She seen us all as saints but the only saint was & still is her... great song!
Copper Head a beautiful tribute to your mountain beauty.
Right on brother sorry for yalls loss my mom's a mountain beauty so was my grandma so this hits home #onelove
This song kills me for the exact same reason man.
One becomes a saint and is rarely born one. I’m sorry for your loss.
My mountain beauty was born in 1914 she raised 9 boys who were all saints in her eye & God called my mountain beauty in 1995 my heart still aches over the loss of my/our mountain beauty rip lovely lady
This is one of those songs you listen to twice because it didn't cut you deep enough the first time
or 2x, or 3x... etc
Truth.
I know what youre saying there . And mine for me is All Choked Up Again by Ryan Bingham. The album is Junky Star
Word
fr i wasn’t ready
Man this and a joint have got me crying like a baby.....I miss my Grandma.
I feel this so hard. She was my momma
Me too brother!
We all owe this Mountain Beauty for giving Tyler and his friends a place they felt comfortable being themselves.
I’m a Chicano from the central coast of California, born and raised.....I wasn’t planning on crying today.
I lost my mom a couple years ago when I was 19. She owns a music school. She was in the corner of every recording session and lesson. I miss her so much. I can never make it through this song just yet.
"Yeah, I reckon we were heathens,
But in her eyes we were saints."
I don't always cry at this song. But, when I do...
I miss you grandma I learned to play and sing this song for you. The boys have been good.
I was born and raised in Pikeville , KY. My Mamaw was from Virgie. She was an amazing woman. Died and buried right there on Island Creek. Miss her every day.
I’m at work In the break room and I had to catch a tear when he said “Can’t you see her up there Cody”! This hit hardddddd. I have my Gma name on my right arm. And every time I take a sip of whiskey, it’s like she’s saying “boy...I know you better than this”.
I'll raise a glass to your grandma tonight, and all the strong ladies who raised us heathens.
My grandboy sent me this, I'm his mountain granny.

Amen brother
Your reply made me cry. I had a special one as well. Lost her at 16,I’m an old man now and still gladly welcome every sweet thought I have of her.
One can not simply listen to this song without crying. I've heard it hundreds of times.. and it's still almost instant tears.
My brother Cody and I lost our mom 5 years ago. She’s from Kentucky and we grew up in a town called Peytonsville, Tn. We cried so hard hearing this song today. It’s so similar to our story too. Thank you so much for sharing this song w the world and hope your friend’s grandma and our mom have found each other looking down on their Codys
"to lay to rest this mountain beauty" The melody and delivery of this line makes the song as far as I'm concerned.

I make it to “boys be good” before I’m brought to tears makes me think of my grandma
I'm good till he says "Can you see her up there Cody?" Then I lose it.
I'm good until he says "Can't you see her up there Cody?" Then I lose it.
I've heard it enough that can make it all the way to "help ya out when you get weary".
Goddamn his voice and this song. He deserves all the awards. Every goddamn one.
Damn right!
@CatDayAfternoon sure do like putting GOD name in vain dont you. He died for your sins and you want to do that. Shame on you.
This is the purest form of music man
The imperfections in his voice make's it perfect!

Back before these calloused hands did all this work
We used to sit up at the flats
Acting like we'd live forever
Getting high and skipping class
I reckon we were heathens
But in her eyes we were saints
Now you're calling all the boys home
As heavens angels carry her away
I will follow you to Virgie
Although it hurts me so
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
That the Lord's called home
Can't you see her up in glory
I can see her through the pines
Back when all us boys were trying
To make sense of all these strings
I can see her in the corner
Singing along to all our crazy dreams
I will follow you to Virgie
Although it hurts me so
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
That the Lord's called home
Can't you see her up in glory
I can see her through the pines
I will follow you to Virgie
Caise that's what us boys are for
To help you out when you get weary
And you cant go alone
Can't you see her up there, Cody?
I can see her through the pines
Saying boys be good
These lyrics are so wrong dude 😂

He is such a good singer/songwriter that I think his guitar work is kind of overlooked. He plays pretty damn precise.
Such a personal song..... even calls his buddy’s name in it .... I listen to this at least once a day 👍
She must have been something to have such a beautiful song written about her
I liked this song allot, but then I watched this and figured it was for somebody’s grandma and now I’m crying
Holy smokes!! Are you kidding!? How have I gone this long without this voice!?
Right ? I have been listening to him for 5 years and I felt I was late on something.... Truly a talented soul..
This is so heartfelt and amazing Im missing my mother and she's only about 10 foot away from me now fast asleep lol. What a song.
Show all the love to that woman before she's no longer here on earth ❤
We called my grandma Virgie, she passed away of cancer last year. Everyone who met her said she was a saint and didn’t understand how a person could be so pure and kind. Currently balling. Thank you for writing this song.
I’m here after saying goodbye to my cat & best friend of 16 years. Rest easy Mechew. 🤍🕊️
I can't listen to this song and not tear 😢 up thinking of both my Mamaw's. And I've listened to this song so many times.
I love all of Tyler's music but this one in particular makes me miss all of my Grandmas so much.
Man that was beautiful. I could see her sitting there listening to them play.
I remember the first time I introduced this young man on stage , he was doing cover songs mostly Bob Dylan stuff and then he done a original song. I knew that he had all the ability and just needed the break to make it. So proud to say I know him.
Don't see many Frisbys, that's my dad's name man
Will you tell I said hello for me....I play this over and over.....my grandmother was Virginia
My name is Cody and I miss my grandma. Love you Grammie. Thank you Tyler.
Gingers do have a soul . Anybody who says otherwise have never heard this gentleman
Thank you for saying this! Of course he might be our one exception to the rule lol

I have never had music give me that feeling u r speaking of, until now. Thank you Tyler. You are a genius
Agreed man. If you don't feel this one you have no soul
Kentucky has owned it for decades
An amazing tribute by an amazing singer/songwriter. The music industry is lucky to have Tyler Childers in its midst.

what do you mean
Favorite artist of all time. Hands down.
Hits me in the feels every time

This song reminds me of my grandma. Even was from west virginia
My grandpa recently passed and I’ve listened to/sang along to this almost everyday since. I sing it with everything I have, sobbing, while I think of him. Thank you Tyler❤️ your music is a blessing, it’s really helped me deal with this. I loved my grandpa so much, I miss him so much
He paints such a Beautiful picture with his music. Best storyteller in music, in my opinion.
Damn, been listening to this song for a while now, never knew the origin. RIP Gam-gam. 😢
I discovered this song a year ago. Gosh I miss my mawmaw. Im 46 now , but in my teens and 20’s there was a group of us that she put up with, feed, loved and supported. She passed 5 years ago but something about this song makes her love on. Thanks for singing to the deep parts of my heart.
I'm a grown man and this song brings me to tears. Could you imagine the way Cody felt the first time he heard it?
I just recently lost my grandma, and i could swear to god tyler wrote this song for me
Miss you Mom. You're my "factory" beauty. The Lord took you on to Glory. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Still here in 2023 missing my mama. She worked so hard and I didn't understand. I miss you mom. Wish I could call you, stop by and visit. I love you.
My grandmothers name is Virgie.
Born and raised in Tellico Plains, Tenn 🤍
Lost my Mom to cancer and man this song hit Home for me fuck I'm Sorry for your loss
We all have people we lose over time. And some are sweet like Cody’s grandma and some run down a different path, but both hurt the exact same. I hope you guys can all find your Virgie and relate. I can see them up in glory every day
Back before these calloused hands and all this work
We used to sit up at the flats
Actin' like we'd live forever
Gettin' high and skippin' class
Yeah, I reckon we were heathens
But in her eyes we were saints
Now you're callin' all the boys home
'Cause heaven's angels carried her away
So I will follow you to Virgie
Although it hurts me so
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
That the Lord's called home
I can see her up in glory
I can see her through the pines
Back when all us boys were tryin'
To make sense of all these strings
I can see her in the corner
Singin' along to all our crazy dreams
So I will follow you to Virgie
Although it hurts me so
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
That the Lord's called home
I can see her up in glory
I can see her through the pines
I will follow you to Virgie
'Cause that's what us boys are for
To help you out when you get weary
And you can't go no more
And can't you see her up there, Cody
I can see her through the pines
Sayin' "Boys be good"
As much as I love being Canadian, I think I'm a Southerner at heart.
Same!
welcome
Come on down brother. Plenty of room for ya down here.
Ive always felt that way , never thought anyone else did
Music doesn't have borders!
I’m from the mountain tops of Colombia, South America, but moved to the states young. NC Appalachia in fact. It’d been tough to spend time with my grandmother countries away and I finally had to say goodbye to her a day ago. Thank you so much this beautiful song, she always loved the English music id show her when I visit and I’m sure she woulda loved this one the same❤️
CUZ THATS WHAT US BOYS ARE FOR
to help you out when you get weary, and you can't go no more
rest in peace mountain beauty
My grampy just passed this morning and this is what I'm howling like a lion to 😭
It took 14yrs to find the right song for when I think about my grandma. I hope Tyler doesn’t slow down. He’s got the best voice out there right now and I LOVE the way he writes his shit. The way he describes shit just... I don’t know man but this motherfucker has got it. Whatever it is. Cheers
I have no words for how good this is
Perfect. I can see her through the pines.
Thank you.
Sayin' boys be good.
This song makes me happy that my names Cody. Hits a little different 🤟👍
well not a dry eye here to be had
What a beautiful song
That's a hard song to listen to cant imagine being the one to play it, damn this hits hard
My great grandmother passed away today. My father and I traveled 2,100 miles to be able to say goodbye. The whole way there this song was stuck in my head. It’s always made me cry, but today it had me sobbing. Thank you Tyler for such a wonderful and beautiful song.
Sorry for your loss 🙏🏻
Sorry for your loss. Amazing song
Amazing lyrics. This guy deserves to have the fame. I'm glad sturgill found him. This song resonates with almost everybody. If you can listen to this and not get a chill, or worst a thumbs down . You are not human, or have never loved anyone before.
the story followed by the performance. 4.5 minutes right in the feels.
man im balling
This is just brilliant. Tyler more than any other exemplifies true country music. And takes it to places that it has never really been before.
