I lost my dad January 10, 2021 and every time I listen to this song I break down n cry. This song has helped me tremendously with my recovery process. Such a beautiful song
The first time I played this song on my guitar and started singing the lyrics and the words really hit me and I got so choked up i had to stop singing and take a moment. My dad was a fireman for 32 years and died of lung cancer in 2000. He died doing what he loved doing, saving people's lives. Love this song.
Thank you to your dads service for his community, Ill take a drink in his honor as well. I lost my grandfather recently seeings how I didn't grow up with dad I, unfortunately, lost him too soon to Cancer.
My dad passed away 2/5/23, my Hero. This song popped up on the day he went to sleep. Never have more true words been sung. Rest in Peace Dad, My old man x
Sent this to my old man 3/8/17.. this was his response: Dude You just ripped my heart out! Cody just so you know You are the biggest accomplishment so far in my life...................the one thing in my life I did right. Nothing on this planet makes me feel better than being your father! Love Dad 1 day short of 13 months later he left this earth unexpectedly... this song hits hard when it comes on 😪
My father is still with me. He‘s somewhat young, so i pray that he’ll be in my life for at least another couple decades, but I tear up thinking about losing him. I love that man with all my heart. I hope you guys have come to peace with your father’s deaths, and cherish their memories for as long as you’re breathing.
My "Ole Man", wore many hats for me, He was dad, my fishing, hunting buddy, my boss, pastor and best friend. I look back and may not have been fair to my ole man to put so much on him. I know now how much he loved me, he never told me with words, he told me in his actions and what he did for me. I was blessed to have my ole man....
I lost my dad a few weeks ago. It's been a confusing and difficult process and I haven't found the time to properly grieve but this song has always gotten to me even before my dad passed. Beautiful, heartfelt song.
I never had a father and son relationship with my dad, but this song hits me deep - I cry time and time again listening to this song...it’s his birthday tomorrow....❤️
My dad passed away Feb 23 2023 two days before my birthday. This song makes me cry so damn hard because it reminds me of him so much. I love you dad hope you rest in peace. My birthday now is about celebrating your life instead of mine
Miss you my great friend and father you were my hero. Nick. 52-22. Love you dad!!! We played thousands of great shows together!!!!!!!! We'll meet again bubba!!!! I'll bring your Martin guitars!!!!
This has been playing in my head for the last 24 hours. I had to share it with my siblings. We lost our hard working Dad a few weeks ago. Miss you heaps Puppa! I promise I will keep learning from you xo
Not a day goes by I don't tear up thinking about my old man. It's been 4.5 years and it does not get easier. Time does not heal, that's complete shit. It still hurts like hell. I have two sons of my own now who will never know him and all I can do is raise them the best I can. Needless to say this song resonates deep with me
First time I've heard the song - a friend posted about his dad. I've read the comments - you are all blessed. I wasn't that fortunate. Not everything was bad growing up but bad enough I tried to do everything I could not to be like my old man. It was tough, I too many times fell back on what I had experienced as a kid growing up. But despite my failings I think my kids are pretty good and doing very well with my grandchildren.
This is my grandpaps song he was my old man . I miss him every single day . But now I'm a pop pop and i have all the things he taught me to be the best one these kids have ever seen . I want to be the living legend he was to me to them .
My dad's a fucking savage. I'm glad he raised me. You parents might feel under appreciated. But we can feel the love you give us, even when we feel too uncomfortable to tell you. Much love everyone.
It is so weird listening to Zac I grew up listening to him play in school and around town he sounds so good so proud of you Zac love the music you put put you are so talented hope to listen to you live one day again
RIP Maurice Allen Watson🙏 I've thought of him everyday since he left us 20 years ago, and miss him more every time I do. He wanted a grandson so bad and the Lord called him home before he got the chance to meet his first, Allen who will soon be 18. Now, He has 4 HANDSOME grandsons. 2 of my own, and he has 1 BEAUTIFUL granddaughter belonging to my baby sister. ....Daddy, I feel you looking down smiling, watching over YOUR family. To us, you are the Greatest man to ever live and we love and miss you deeply. Your grandbabies know of the wonderful, protective, loving man that you were. I strive everyday to be like MY OLD MAN, until I see you again.. i love you Daddy❤
He was a giant And I was just a kid I was always trying To do everything he did I can still remember every lesson he taught me Growing up learning how to be Like my old man He was a lion We were our father's pride But I was defiant When he made me walk the line He knew how to lift me up And when to let me fall Looking back, he always had a plan My old man My old man Feel the callous on his hands And dusty overalls My old man Now I finally understand I have a lot to learn From my old man Now I'm a giant Got a son of my own He's always trying To go everywhere I go Do the best I can to raise him up the right way Hoping that he someday wants to be Like his old man My old man I know one day we'll meet again As he's looking down My old man I hope he's proud of who I am I'm trying to fill the boots of my old man My old man
I keep my guitar tuned down a 1/2 step, so I put capoe on 6th fret.... it was too high.... zac has his guitar tuned down a half step and capoed on 5th fret (for anyone trying to play it).
I never met my dad ever don't know what his name is don't know what he looks like.....but I'm smart creative successful but I try n teach my kids who thier dad is...
God bless and keep you Yulema. I lived apart from my only daughter for 22 years (not by choice)...After all that time I had almost given up hope...then, last summer my miracle happened and we were finally reunited. Through Gods grace all things are possible.
Great song! Hello type in "Ron Howard Palace" listen to Opie sing "Lady"! Also type "Ron Howard cover" listen to "The Dance"! To all of us who have lost ones life goes "that fast" and we will see them again "that soon"!
