Old friend, it’s been awhile, I ain’t spoke to you in years, Often times, boys from this town, put wheels down and disappear, Mrs. Cole asked about you just three days back, and I had no answer to give her, I told her that you moved way out west, to write some songs and grow a little more bitter, The kids talk about you around here like you’re some kind of legend I wonder if they know a thousand sunrises ago you were eager just like them. But if you ever decide to bring your pain and your pride back to this side of Oklahoma City, There’ll be a porch light on, from the post you leaned on before you wound up on the wrong side of pity, Often times I pray for you and often times I don’t, is it the goodbyes that haunt you or the fear of new hellos, You never stay long cause you won’t stop your running, you’ll wait for tomorrow until tomorrow’s not coming. Heard you landed in Tulsa while he slipped away, Is that the reason your fleeing the fields we hauled hay, The heat this July or the dark last December, Look in my eyes and you might remember, The weed out in Norman or the Stillwater strip, Run far enough boy and you’re bound to trip.
Nice job man, this was amazing. Your music has helped me get back into guitar and voice. Singing is definitely harder then guitar, and guitar is freaking hard, but thanks for giving me the motivation to get back into it! Love you man!
You are making some of the most cherished times of your life. I was stationed at Whidbey as a marine and that place helped me find myself during hard times. You are helping me find more of me
@@boogerwolf2015 you seem like a pretty awful person TBH. work on whatever demons you are dealing with inside that make you so toxic. life it too short to treat people like that.
I’m a huge fan also, and the reason he hasn’t, is because he’s not tied to record labels. He’s not participating in the loop of the industry. Those big wigs with radio shows, labels, radio stations, have no reason to promote Zach Bryan because they can’t profit and benefit from it. I personally believe he’s not shooting for that, I think he’s fine where he’s at. The fans will be real fans and not just the quantity of listeners just so he can make “money”. His real fan base is growing and making his name, not the Industry promoting him like Billy Mays lol
really, fuckin huge shout out to the man playing a god damn fiddle in a moving vehicle, I know everyone here is talented, but that's some true yeehaw madlad shit.
Sadly no they wouldn’t people in Oklahoma are not supportive when it comes to music also one of the biggest music festivals for local artists got shut down completely this year it sucks its great he’s on RU-vid cuz that’s the best chances he’s gunna have living in Oklahoma sorry I live here I love it it’s beautiful but artistic opportunities are scarce here
Karin Michelle huh? Thats such a blanket statement & not even remotely true. Oklahoma is very supportive to music & zach bryan is popular all over the state.
Karin Michelle are you stupid. Half the people who watch him are from Oklahoma. I’m from Oklahoma😂 we are such a supportive state! I’ve met so many people who want to move to Oklahoma just because how supportive they are
This guy really knows how to make songs hit home. He is some kind of special. It’s a different sound, it may not be perfectly produced, but it is what it’s meant to be. A beautiful song with soul and emotion. Artists like this don’t get the credit they deserve.
This is way better than the recorded version on American Heartbreak. This is so Raw and authentic. We can tell you love making music and telling your stories Zach, keep it up!
Always had a lot of respect for this man for his lyrics but he literally just sang a song in the back of a bronco and absolutely KILLED it. This is music!! Keep up the good work!!!
that fiddle though....damn! Imagine looking back at this in 20 years and remembering just hanging out with your friends in a moment so pure and happy that everyone is actually present.
Best artist hands down if you don't make it far. Even if you don't make it to the radio just know you touched the world with your music already. And saved peoples life with your music. Your that good keep it up man. The world needs to hear you man more then you know.
Guitar chords (Capo 5): * G6 is just the normal G chord without fingering on the 1st and 2nd strings (32000x) Intro/verses: F, C, G6, Am. Chorus: F, C, G6, Am. In the chorus, it looks like he's playing C, G6, Am, with no F. However, he is also playing with a band and to match that sound, I would play F, C, G6, Am.
Got goosebumps as soon as I saw you all in the back with the mic, knew this was going to be fucking great. Then you let loose. This was absolutely amazing.
l agree with you, indeed Zach Bryan is a great and talented artist who's songs never goes out of style, he's one of my favorites artist, he's songs still and always heals the Soul…
I've listened to this song so many times in the past 6 days. It's been on repeat everyday. By far the best song of the past 10 maybe 20 years. And the coolest thing done in a bronco. Ever.
Cant tell you how much this song has hit my soul. Your a brilliant song writer. Your songs make those long work days, and those tough memories a real beautiful thing. Can't tell you how much these songs are cherished man. Pops was airborne, sure he'd apricate your songwriting. Cheers from Canada.
Literally one of the coolest videos I've seen. You managed to bring back memories of road trips with old friends, memories at the beach with buddies, and just good times all at once. This is awesome.
Mannnnn I drove a 94 bronco throughout high school and a couple years after. This gave me chills and brought back a lot of good memories. Love what you’re doin man, keep it up. Found you on tiktok and never looked back. Spreading your music as much as I can. Have a killer day bro 🤙🏼🤙🏼
If y’all ever came to South Dakota I have about 20 friends who’d come runnin to hear yalls music in person. Never found anyones music i can relate to like yours!!!
"is it the goodbyes that haunt you or the fear of new hello's" man, never had a line from a song haunt me so much. Amazing. The song came at a time in my life where I am in that situation, goodbyes and new hello's.
For all of you folks who say that he needs to sign with a label, or seek wealth and fame, just listen to the lyrics to Me and Mine. I don't think he will, and I for one am glad.
Zach..... your music makes me rethink my life, gives me appreciation for what I have and all I have to do is listen to your jams and I’m all good man, the zachnasium if you will.
He already has. I think he’s pretty committed to not signing with a label. In “heading south” he says all they care about is a fucking dollar sign and I’m pretty sure he’s referring to record labels that don’t care about their artists
This was awesome!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼. Beautiful with the vocal harmony and accompanying instruments. Hopefully this is the first of many in the belting bronco series 🤠🤘🏼
Man I’m blessed to have found you music.damn never every song you play I can relate to man keep it up you hands down one of the best it’s simple minded people like you that keep great music coming
This guy is proof that the essence of America is still there. Amongst all the hate and violence, you can still find corners of that country that are still beautiful
For anyone who wants to play this on guitar, here's how :) - Standard Tuning - Capo 5th Fret - - Chords & Strum Pattern - F, C, G, Am For each chord, strum: Down Down Down Down, Down, Up *Repeat for the entire song* Hope this helps out! If you get stuck or need a little extra help, I posted a video lesson for this on my channel :)
Don't ever change a damn thing about how you make music. I honestly can't listen to anyone else right now. My buddy that I work next to asked me why I'm listening to the same songs over and over today, I told him cause Zach Bryan killed music for me.
Thank you for this amazing song! My Oklahoma son is in the Marine Corps and hasn't been home in a long time. I love that I can send a little Oklahoma to him ♥️
Love ur music Zach! Im shipping off for basic in 2 weeks and i will be humming ur songs when things get tough. Dont stop making this shit or I will be pissed!
I kinda dont want him to be very famous so he doesnt change and modernizes his music style with perfectly recorded music videos etc... Those old school raw recorded videos are the best!
