This song stopped me dead in my tracks. I'm crying now and it's not even my own story! What captivating songwriting and simple but not dumbed-down lyrics. I feel like my friend just told me his dark secret and kinda made it rhyme. Thanks Tyler Hood!
solid song, gonna look up more of his shit. Thanks WesternAF for giving guys like this a little more opportunity to be seen. Found so many good artists because of you guys.
I'm not a huge country fan, mostly because of what they play on the radio, but this is so good. Like the difference between contemporary Christian music and old time hymns, no comparison.
Bravo Mr. Hood & WesternAF-- Great reminder that seat belts, sober drivers, and slowing down saves lives right before July 4th weekend. "And your daddy said he can't believe that I could take something so perfect and make it all bleed And I know that he's in the right but that don't help me now while I'm drunk here tonight"
"Discovered" willi Carlisle yesterday, which led me to Western AF. That lead me to an amazing group of musicians and songs. One of the best UA-cam rabbit holes I have gone down in years. Love this song. Thanks

I had to pause the video at 1:39 because I broke down crying. This is my first time hearing you. I’ve heard sad songs before, but idk this is different. It’s beautiful. It’s tragic. It felt like a punch in my gut. You have a gift for storytelling and your sound reaches to the deepest of deeps. Keep up the good work
Damn.. Every young mans worst fear.. I’m sure too many of us lost some friends in those young and wild years to very similar situations.. this one gave me those punched in gut feels, great stuff Tyler 👍🏻👍🏻
What a marvelously written tune. You don’t get these songs very often anymore. At least not on the radio which I tend to avoid. Song writing ain’t for most people I’ll say that right now so please don’t ever feel like just have average talent. As far as I’m concerned your a modern legend already for this beautifully written song. Thanks for sharing this to the world. There’s a lot of hurt people out there that can find peace within this , so thank you again.
The authenticy and realness of your content is incredible. This channel continues to find artists that bring quality to viewers who otherwise probably wouldn't come across these songwriters. Keep it up.
Such moving lyrics with such an organic capturing voice. Amazing combination 😦 almost fatal! This song touches something inside I didn't realize I could emphasize with! ❤️
Thanks to everyone involved in making this possible. I’m so grateful to be able to do this with Mike and Brian. Much love to all y’all
honor is all ours' amigo
love back to ya
I can see your passion, not to mention hear it.. great performing in this setting. Cheers Mr. Hood
So awesome to see you on Western AF. I remember voting for ya' in the Gems in the Rough contest!
Need to make a Spotify debut!
We need this one on Spotify so badly
UA-cam IS BETTER, SAID WHAT I SAID
@user-cq3ye4td6r Well to be fair I want it on tidal but was going to settle for spotify 😭😭
I come here to feel and remind myself of the gift of life i have and take for granted.
This song stopped me dead in my tracks. I'm crying now and it's not even my own story! What captivating songwriting and simple but not dumbed-down lyrics. I feel like my friend just told me his dark secret and kinda made it rhyme. Thanks Tyler Hood!
I wholeheartedly agree. What a tragic tale so honestly performed.
Yep this just happened to me on my first listen
Yeah this guy is incredible. Check out his other stuff aswell
solid song, gonna look up more of his shit. Thanks WesternAF for giving guys like this a little more opportunity to be seen. Found so many good artists because of you guys.
Mr. Hood. I've heard some sad country songs but that one tore my heart in two. You are a great story teller and song writer! Thanks!
Yessir.
I'm not a huge country fan, mostly because of what they play on the radio, but this is so good. Like the difference between contemporary Christian music and old time hymns, no comparison.

"And your daddy said he can't believe that I could take something so perfect and make it all bleed

"dancing into a power line pole" paints such a vivid picture, incredible songwriting
Thanks for completing DESTROYING me tonight. This hits close. Very close. Your lyrics, beautiful. Never stop doing what you do!
Thanks for listening

I imagine you already know but if not, definitely check out Gems on VHS as well.
@@bgabriel6532 thanks. I have seen one or two, but forgot about it. Appreciate the reminder
Truth. I'm on the same journey right now.
@@damntueton enjoy. Haven't heard a bad song yet
Like the songwriting here a lot, good one!
Chords and lyrics below as always folks
Standard tuning, Capo on 2
Intro G B7 C D x2
Verses 1&3 G B7 C D x8
Chorus Am C G D / Am C G B7 C D / B7 C G D / B7 C G D
Interlude 1 G B7 C D x2
Verse 2 G B7 C D x4

Interlude 2 G B7 C D x4
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
It's early morning, the sun was shining through the clouds and the trees
And you were smiling and kinda laughing in the car next to me
I took a turn too fast and I let that sucker roll
Round and round like we were dancing into a power line pole
[Chorus]
And it happened so fast, I couldn't see you through all of the glass
But I held on to your hand as we flew through the air
And maybe if you were the same, then I could live out the rest of my life without shame
But you ain't wherever you go and I hope you are better but I'll never know
[Interlude]
[Verse 2]
And your daddy said he can't believe that I could take something so perfect and make it all bleed
And I know that he's in the right but that don't help me now while I'm drunk here tonight
[Chorus]
And I remember that you told me that you'd be a nurse when you'd passed in the spring
And I wish that you could help me tonight in this bar
And I know just like everyone that it's hard to get back on the road once you're gone
And five miles over the limit is all that it takes
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
And if life is a dream then I'm afraid of waking up
But it's colder and deeper than the bottom of my cup
And how I wish that we could be sixteen again
In my old man's car on the way to go swim

Come back here monthly. This is one of my favorite songs of all time
This is the gold thatll save country..
I have been on a Tyler hood rabbit hole and I ain't mad about it.
Hell of a good songwriter - next in a very exclusive line of country songwriters - Tyler is in rare air here
It’s a good nite when u open up UA-cam and this song is the first thing to pop up 💕
Amazing how much is said with such simple words

Ty writes songs that convey so many feels thanks as always for capturing such great artist.
WesternAF produces the best videos! Love Tyler & his writing!
Well I didn't plan to be misty eyed but here we are, simple yet powerful

Beautiful. And tragic. Country music summed up right there.
A nice 70's sounding folk country

Amazing voc.keep going brother ,real country never die , because people like you🤝👊👊👍👍......
"And I Know Just like Everyone
That it’s Hard to get Back on the Road once You’re Gone"
Felt that. Thank you.
I often enjoy listening to “diamonds in the rough” like Tyler. I often prefer a raw but real presentation rather than a polished but empty one.
Hearts broken in two. I need more. 0:48
WONDERFUL VOICE
i mss the old timy twang you have
Amazing story telling with an amazing song.
Spent the last week trying to play and sing this for myself. I can't make it through without breaking down.
Haunting. Echos of ghosts who will never be seen. Damn good song bro.

I'm 86 and I remember hearing Bob Dylan for the first time and thinking that sound would never catch on. Boy was I wrong...
Amazing storytelling and songwriting

My heart just fell about two stories... Great Song!
