Dude .... I'm an old retired Marine.....and literally just got back from taking my old dog for a ride in my truck....cause she loves it and I love her....and she provides purpose... I 'll take care of her first... then myself.... she provides me purpose... with out her... I have no purpose... sounds trite... but its the small things in life... my small thing weighs 10 pounds.... great song... awesome video!
Thank You Sir for your service 🙏 I'm the same way with my sweet Sadie,she's a boxer mixes and weights 75 pounds, I'm 60yrs old and I've had 2 brain surgeries and now I have seizures and she's an indoor dog and spoiled doesn't even compare to the way she stands by me and knows when I'm gonna have one,it's funny,she has a way to make me sit down, dog's are so smart and she'll even talk back when I fuss with her, she's my bestfriend 😀 🐶
I LOVE this song but it still gets me every time. I always cry when Chase dies in the video but I start bawling at the end when he says "It's time to take you home" and I realize that the dog is crossing the rainbow bridge. But great songs make you feel.
I've been in recovery since 2006. They say first get a plant....if you can keep that alive for a year....get a pet. If you keep the pet alive for a year....you're ready for a relationship. It works. Recovery is a long hard road and a struggle everyday but it's 100% worth it. I love that this song shows the dog's perspective. Sometimes it's hard to see the effects addiction has on others...even pets.
Congratulations on your recovery ❤️ As a mother of 2 sons and a grandson with addiction I know how hard it was for you. Be very proud of yourself! One son is doing great, the other doesn't think he has a problem even though their older brother died of overdose a couple of years ago. His son did well for about 8 months then backslid. He's been in jail for doing something stupid while under the influence, so clean for 14 months. So holding my breath on him. Drugs turns the family upside down, it doesn't just affect one person. Bless you, for taking control of your life! ❤️
@sandralybrand9425 Sometimes, it takes what it takes. Not everyone comes to terms with addiction at the same point. I have a sister whose in federal prison for 20 years for drug offenses. Though I changed and fought for myself, she never could. The most important thing that helped me get sober was acceptance. It's the key to it all for me. If I can accept that what has happened is over, I can move forward. In my addiction, I struggled to believe I deserved better. You have to love yourself to help yourself. I know its hard but try to remember that its painful for them to see the damage they've caused to their family, even if they don't show it. I will send hope and prayers for you and your family. Take it one day at a time.
What a precious song. Honestly, I'm not complete without a dog. I'm 61, so I've had many dogs, and cats too. I cry over each one still at different times. Through divorce, losing my home, personal injury, and loss of loved ones, I would not have made it without my fur babies
The wife and I started fostering puppies last November. We both love animals and when I found this song, it really hit home. We help them they fix us. Think about it!! The onion ninjas still get me everytime I listen it
I've got 4 months clean and sober after several overdoses. This song is written in the dogs perspective. Thanks to my wife for being supportive and never giving up on me
This the first time I've seen,the video. I'm stilling crying. Our pets are part of our family. They always give unconditional love and support. More then people will. When we loss our beautiful dog Charily , on 2/22/2015. He was 17 years old. Our just got his drivers licenses. And went fishing and fined him and another dog someone dumped out at the lake. Our bought both dogs home . We kept Charily, both dogs were only maybe 4 months old. His girlfriend at time took the other dog. We would have kept her , but we already had one, and she was 6 years old. But Charily , had had big heart. I fight with mental illness. And Charily knew,when would just go outside to seat he would come and lay his head on my lap. I can't count how many times I have cried hugging him. Our other dog Ms.Mime, we lost her to cancer on 11/3/2009. And you know dogs grief too. Even when a one ( person) passes.we have buried in our backyard. here were me and my husband lives, and MsMime, she at the home , my was raised in. We moved there after Losing he dad in August 2008. It still hurts when we go outside and seat in the backyard. After losing him. I didn't want another dog or cat . 2 years to the date of losing Charily. I hold our cat , my baby, while he Spooky , had to go to heaven. And buried out back too. I was out state with Mom . I took back down south Texas , where she and my daddy , has been going since 1994. My daddy had servers heart issues. He passed away in his sleep down there on2/19/2014. His heart gave out. He had , 5 bypasses in1989,& 3 more in 1998. We were very blessed to have him as long as we did . His doctor's were didn't think he would made that after so many other heart issues. But me and went down to Rio Honda,TX. The Mexico border was 20 miles from there. We went put the noble home up for sale. And on very sad day me and mom , just sit and cried. The evening my son sent a picture of a dog about 10 months old. And my son said to me, here's a new baby for you and dad , can love. I was upset first. But he kept sending me pictures of her. And she was a rescue dog. And was living on the street for who knows how long, before they found her. It took them a couple of months working with her . My husband named her Jade , because the color of her eyes. She is so loving and very protective. But we can't have another dog , because she had to fight off other dogs or hide from them. She will hurt another dog or any kind of animal. She great keeping, other critter out of the backyard. And she stays beside you when outside. And she doesn't leave my grandson and granddaughter, sides when they are there. And her toys are rocks big ones and bricks and her rope . We have a hill in our backyard and she will roll them down and use her teeth and front paws to carry them around the yard. She part Doberman and Lab. And she 8 years old and still acts like a puppy. With each pet you have you love them all differently because they can't replace the one you loss. But they sure can love you just as much and be your support system in there own way. I have downloaded this song months ago. But have gone to TH-cam and watched it 2 more times and cried harder . Thanks to guy's, for asking you play it. ❤️
The son is named after Chase's dad (Daniel) which always made the video so much more touching to me. Chase mentioned on the Opry about the song, he said his friend was about to end his life and as he got the gun, readying himself, his friends dog came and put his head on his lap. Literally saved his life. This video has won some awards at short story festivals - including Cannes.
The first time I saw this video, I was a little sad and in awe of the video. Watching it now, months later.. I’ve lost my Father, a best friend and dog. I am BAWLING!! 😢 It hits so much different now.
Man I just saw him live in concert with Jelly Roll and Struggle Jennings and he had the dog/ his dog on stage with him while he sang the song!! Very powerful and beautiful concert to witness.
My first husband got attached with a puppy that my son brought in on cold night. He through a fit , fussed and cussed about him. But then they bonded. My husband had a mental breakdown and it was rough. Then in the fall of 2006 that puppy had grown into a beautiful 90 pound house dog, and he got hit on the road, broke his back, and my husband had to put him down. He held him and told him of all the stuff he helped him through. The 2 months later my husband put his own self down. You never know what that unconditional bond can mean
Oh wow. As a recovering addict...I've been here. This song just broke me all the way down. I've never heard this song or seen the video. And I'm in tears. I've been to that place where I just needed the wireless to stop moving so fast for just a minute. And I've overdosed. And I am absolutely blessed that God didn't take me....he let me live. And now I'm am addiction counselor. I'm trying to help others and prevent this as much as I can. Gosh! This is such a true story in this country right now. Studies say that over 85% of people in this country are touched by afficionado in some way, whether it's family or friends or themselves. We all need a little help sometimes.
Gosh, Sebs. This song touches all my feels. AA saved my life in 1987 and continues to after all this time. My second husband was in AA, too. I have two rescue dogs who help keep my mind right, when I start thinking funny. The oldest dog is 16+ and helped me through the loss of my husband. He'll soon be crossing the Rainbow Bridge to be with his "dad". The other was a Puppy Mill Mama who has taught me to slow my roll. I'm not sure who helps who the most but, each dog owns my heart in a different way. Thanks for this song and video.
Just a river of tears right now, one of the few of his songs I hadn't heard. My dog is just over a year old now and super active he has helped my mental health so much even though he was initially gotten to help my sister, so now just super emotionally about how much I love my dog even though he's nuts sometimes.
It's a true masterpiece of contemporary music. Most people have no idea that the song is actually from the dog's perspective unless they watch the video.
Im sitting here in the mexican restaurant parking lot crying my eyes out waiting for friends to show up! 😭 love the song tho and what an amazing music video! Also sebs keep putting out this amazing content love your channel man!
In the end he came back to bring the dog with him to heaven. I’m a recovering addict from pills too. This hit me so hard. People don’t realize the struggle of a addiction. Anything can cause a relapse. A smell a sound a place or a person. I am praying for all that needs the strength to go another day. God bless
Never be embarrassed of how much you love God! I claimed being an athiest for 13 years. And in the throws of my addiction, when I was about to lose absolutely everything, I board my head and prayed. And God helped me get sober. He showed me that I was a blessing and had a purpose in this earth. This is an absolutely beautiful tribute!
Chase said that it came about because a friend of his literally had a gun, about to use it, and his dog came over and put his head on his lap. So his dog saved his life. It also gets me at the end how their son is named after Chase’s dad (Daniel/Danny) who died many years ago.
I can honestly say my black lab and his overly lovable attention hog self have helped me out more times that i can count when I wasn’t in the best place in my head
The best part is when you find out it’s from the dogs perspective and they go into the last chorus and he replays the video from when he rescued him to her getting pregnant and that was the dogs version of heaven and it all starts with them two alone in his truck which is the bench seat. Then the end you find out the dog passes away and he comes back with his truck to drive him off to heaven
I just lost my love on 6/23/23, we had 15 months from his diagnosis till his death. We tried to make a lifetime of memories in that time but the shock and gut wrenching pain still is there. Please people don't take a single moment for granted...
Every time one passes, I know to get another to transfer the love we had. I would not be here if I did not have a dog... to all my friends waiting up there... thank u for holding my spot❤
I've never seen this video or heard the song and man I am sobbing. I lost my 12 yo dog this year and I also didn't give her the best all the time. It makes me not ever want another dog, they deserve so much. But then I miss her and tbh one day I may do it again, I feel like I will know if/ when the right dog comes along.
We have had several friend to go back out. And they don’t really mean to OD. That they have been clean for a while, then they go out and take the amount they were taking and it gets them. Thank God my husband never got into drugs, but being an alcoholic is bad and it’s own self. Keep coming back.
Dogs have been by our side for so long they truly are a very special gift from God. Personally I doubt we would have made it this far without them protecting us. ❤ 🇺🇲
I didn't make it past the adoption center before I reached for the tissues. Fantastic song, fantastic video. Now, if this was 20 years ago, I'd tell you to look in the phone book, but if you are struggling with your dog's training, lots of boarding houses and trainers have puppy kindergarden classes, which is more teaching the human how to talk to the dog, rather than actually training the dog, because the dog knows, but people sometimes don't. Doesn't matter if the dog is a puppy, either.
You do get it right! You missed it dude! At the end the dog dies! The guy comes back for the dog! Omg! I can’t believe you missed it! It was from the dogs point of view!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Over 30 years ago, I had to go to court mandated AA, what it's not something that was really up my alley. I knew I had a problem at that point, but I really didn't want to deal with it. When I got married, and after my first child was born, I accidentally stopped drinking. I can't say that I have been sober my entire Time as a father, I would like to say I fell off the wagon, but that's not true, I jumped off. To this day, I'm still for the most part sober.
That's his dog in the video an he brings him out on stage when he sings this song. He once said in a interview he cried the whole way thru writing this
I'm 22 I lost my 36 year old mama to a drug overdose in June 2023 she struggled with drugs all my life and the guilt eats me up everyday that I didn't do more to help her and now my mama no longer has her life 💔😭 addiction is a powerful thing 😢
Lol you say you haven’t been the best dog owner and he still loves you :) dogs love is so unconditional. Mine died about a year ago and I was heartbroken. I wasn’t the best either , I did my best, but he needed so much more than an old disabled woman lol. That dog stayed by my side everywhere I went. No one ever had to ask where he was they just had to look for me…. Dogs are amazing! Now I am a proud very great cat mother and Grandmother or M2 as I prefer it and I have to say I freaking love my cats so much but I’d kill for just one more good day with my dog who always fought through his pains and ills just for me I think until he couldn’t anymore. No matter what, unless you beat and abuse them, dogs will love you through it.
You should check out Mo Pitney's Just a Dog but do the version where he is talking about why he wrote the song. That one will get ya. Best song about loving a furry family member.
F this song hits home I all ways had pets (more like family) no matter what there all ways there for me a few years a go I was dealing with mental health and tried to end it all think God the gun jammed only time it ever did but when I opened the door after waking up ( took a lot of pills and was drinking on top of it one of the worst times in my life ) in the hall way was all my cats climbing up me like they new what had happened I wish I could say that was the end of it but every time I get depressed and thank about leaving this world they are there for me my blind cats sits by the door so she knows when I'm home I love my wife with all my heart but my pets is what makes it hard to leave I know my wife would be ok but I'm not sure they would be
I have been probably every type of meeting , church or temple and I just believe in any open door is some positive meaning or lesson out of it and still working on closing some but I tend to care for more others more then self.
Dogs are the most loyal creatures in the world! Over the past 40+ years I have rescued 150 dog's! I'm not saying that I kept them all, what I did do was vetted them for shots, health, and fixed them. I also have trained many for safety with families! Then I would rehome them. I have had a dog in my life for close to 50 years! If you have a doubt of a dog's loyalty, just spell dog backwards God 🙏❤️🐕❤️🐶❤️
I attended some AA meetings. They tried to tell me an imaginary being was going to solve my problems. I called bs on that. I HAVE TO FIX IT MYSELF! That's what a Giant Omnipotent Deity would expect.
I actually seen him play this song in concert he was one of the ones who was on tour/opening for Jelly Roll back on Oct Friday the 13th.. But I can relate sooo much to this song because I have a black lab like thats part of the household now from since he just maybe like 1 year old but also at the same time struggled with the whole addiction process for over the last 7 years and I live in New Smyrna Beach we also have a State Road 44 for a minute I thought he was talking about here but then he was singing about Tennessee lol. But he wrote this song from the dog’s point of view which is amazing!! But Chase is actually from Ormond Beach born & raised same county as I’m in like 30 minutes away.
What is this song reaction couldn't come through at a better time I've been sitting here all night thinking about relapse I've been clean for 2 years and life has gotten hard the last year and for some reason I think going back would be a better way but I'm trying to fight it and the song just made me realize that I should fight
This song is in act from the perspective of the dog at the end of the video where she looks out the dogs and chase aren’t there because the dog passed aswell and they both met up again
Done AA, NA and Adam. Till I turned to Jesus Christ I couldn't do it. It's God that helps you make the changes in your life you need to make. That same unconditional LOVE comes from JESUS CHRIST. JUST THINK dog spelled backwards is God. A Dog is truly God's creature made for hummans.
Dude .... I'm an old retired Marine.....and literally just got back from taking my old dog for a ride in my truck....cause she loves it and I love her....and she provides purpose... I 'll take care of her first... then myself.... she provides me purpose... with out her... I have no purpose... sounds trite... but its the small things in life... my small thing weighs 10 pounds.... great song... awesome video!
Semper Fi brother, I also put others in front of me
Thank You Sir for your service 🙏 I'm the same way with my sweet Sadie,she's a boxer mixes and weights 75 pounds, I'm 60yrs old and I've had 2 brain surgeries and now I have seizures and she's an indoor dog and spoiled doesn't even compare to the way she stands by me and knows when I'm gonna have one,it's funny,she has a way to make me sit down, dog's are so smart and she'll even talk back when I fuss with her, she's my bestfriend 😀 🐶
I feel the same way about my babies. The four legged kind.
24 years sobe because of AA and a GOD of my understanding.
Unlike this video my dog saved my life when I was struggling with my addiction.
I LOVE this song but it still gets me every time. I always cry when Chase dies in the video but I start bawling at the end when he says "It's time to take you home" and I realize that the dog is crossing the rainbow bridge. But great songs make you feel.
I've been in recovery since 2006. They say first get a plant....if you can keep that alive for a year....get a pet. If you keep the pet alive for a year....you're ready for a relationship. It works. Recovery is a long hard road and a struggle everyday but it's 100% worth it. I love that this song shows the dog's perspective. Sometimes it's hard to see the effects addiction has on others...even pets.
Semper Fi brother. Iraq and Afghanistan. My service dog goes everywhere I go!!! I can’t imagine life without her. Thank you for your service, Marine.
Congratulations on your recovery ❤️ As a mother of 2 sons and a grandson with addiction I know how hard it was for you. Be very proud of yourself! One son is doing great, the other doesn't think he has a problem even though their older brother died of overdose a couple of years ago. His son did well for about 8 months then backslid. He's been in jail for doing something stupid while under the influence, so clean for 14 months. So holding my breath on him. Drugs turns the family upside down, it doesn't just affect one person.

What a beautifully sad song. Your reaction, Sebs, was also beautiful. My first hearing of Chase Rice - will listen to more of him.

You’d never know that this is from the dogs perspective until the last verse… gets me every time 😢
This is just one of my favorite Chase Rice songs!!! Just a beautiful and sad song thank you for taking the time to listen to this song!!!
This is such a well written song loaded with emotion. Amazing twist. Really nice job
The son is named after Chase's dad (Daniel) which always made the video so much more touching to me.

This got me. We just lost our little dog a couple weeks ago and are still wrecked. She was so sweet. Til we see you again, Zoe.
One of the best videos ever. Totally changes the meaning of the song.
Im sitting here in the mexican restaurant parking lot crying my eyes out waiting for friends to show up! 😭 love the song tho and what an amazing music video! Also sebs keep putting out this amazing content love your channel man!
Wow never heard this song before so beautiful but couldn't stop crying thank you for playing it
In the end he came back to bring the dog with him to heaven. I’m a recovering addict from pills too. This hit me so hard. People don’t realize the struggle of a addiction. Anything can cause a relapse. A smell a sound a place or a person. I am praying for all that needs the strength to go another day. God bless
The dog watched over the family till his passing, and he returned to pick him up for one last Bench Seat ride home.
I've watched that vid so many times and i still cry every time. Amazing song
Never be embarrassed of how much you love God! I claimed being an athiest for 13 years. And in the throws of my addiction, when I was about to lose absolutely everything, I board my head and prayed. And God helped me get sober. He showed me that I was a blessing and had a purpose in this earth. This is an absolutely beautiful tribute!

We as humans don’t deserve dogs, such unconditional love no matter what mood we are in ❤ I sure love mine
“LOL looks like the whiter version of that dude on High School Musical 🤣🤣”
This song and video absolutely wrecked me the first time I watched it. Love my boy chief more than anything
Wow, I bawled. We lost our precious Dog, our best friend.
I just lost my love on 6/23/23, we had 15 months from his diagnosis till his death. We tried to make a lifetime of memories in that time but the shock and gut wrenching pain still is there. Please people don't take a single moment for granted...
Thanks for doing this song. I'm doing my best to stay out of trouble. 😂
Every time one passes, I know to get another to transfer the love we had. I would not be here if I did not have a dog... to all my friends waiting up there... thank u for holding my spot❤
I've never seen this video or heard the song and man I am sobbing. I lost my 12 yo dog this year and I also didn't give her the best all the time. It makes me not ever want another dog, they deserve so much. But then I miss her and tbh one day I may do it again, I feel like I will know if/ when the right dog comes along.
My husband is in AA. I go with him. And the program is awesome. My husband likes 3 months having 10’years sober
We have had several friend to go back out. And they don’t really mean to OD. That they have been clean for a while, then they go out and take the amount they were taking and it gets them. Thank God my husband never got into drugs, but being an alcoholic is bad and it’s own self. Keep coming back.
Don’t remember who said it but “A dog is the only thing on Earth that loves you more than themselves” and it’s so true
Great reaction! We need more "Men" like yourself. This song and video cuts deep.
You have a beautiful heart!
I love that when it was time that he went back to take his dog with him 😢
GEE THANKS..NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE, I AM BALLING LIKE A BABY...
I heard this song live 2 weeks ago, and man... it hits even harder live
Dogs have been by our side for so long they truly are a very special gift from God. Personally I doubt we would have made it this far without them protecting us. ❤ 🇺🇲
I didn't make it past the adoption center before I reached for the tissues. Fantastic song, fantastic video.
Now, if this was 20 years ago, I'd tell you to look in the phone book, but if you are struggling with your dog's training, lots of boarding houses and trainers have puppy kindergarden classes, which is more teaching the human how to talk to the dog, rather than actually training the dog, because the dog knows, but people sometimes don't. Doesn't matter if the dog is a puppy, either.
This song is so hard for mebreaks my heart. She died all of a sudden last Sept. I still cry over her. I miss her so much. I'm crying now.😥😥💔💔💔
I started Ala-teen when I was 12. I strongly believe in AA. It saved my Dad's life and my family.
Thanks. I needed to ugly cry at work. Though the puppy just came and I can tell he was eating out of the litter box.
I also am a recovering addict and so is the artist Shinedown. "Daylight" and "Disfunctional Me" are a couple of myfavorite songs!
You do get it right! You missed it dude! At the end the dog dies! The guy comes back for the dog! Omg! I can’t believe you missed it! It was from the dogs point of view!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Over 30 years ago, I had to go to court mandated AA, what it's not something that was really up my alley. I knew I had a problem at that point, but I really didn't want to deal with it. When I got married, and after my first child was born, I accidentally stopped drinking. I can't say that I have been sober my entire Time as a father, I would like to say I fell off the wagon, but that's not true, I jumped off. To this day, I'm still for the most part sober.
Anyone who was in the military and uses the VA knows those meds are VA meds. Yes, it’s from the puppers perspective.
I lost my dog tragically. This made me cry. I miss him
That's his dog in the video an he brings him out on stage when he sings this song. He once said in a interview he cried the whole way thru writing this
Omg!! In tears love my 2 dogs to the end
Love this song and video! Just beautiful 💗
This one got me. Another similar one is Maggie’s song by Chris Stapleton. That one gets me every time as well. We don’t deserve dogs.
this is one of the best songs i have ever heard
the song was sung in the dog's perspective and at the end chase picks him up and takes a bench seat ride home (means the dog passed away)
I'm 22 I lost my 36 year old mama to a drug overdose in June 2023 she struggled with drugs all my life and the guilt eats me up everyday that I didn't do more to help her and now my mama no longer has her life 💔😭 addiction is a powerful thing 😢
I'm a 53yo veteran. That broke me. Man, I miss my dog.
“Maggie’s Song”- Chris Stapleton
Gets to me every time I watch it. Another great song about a dog is Feed Jake.
Lol you say you haven’t been the best dog owner and he still loves you :) dogs love is so unconditional. Mine died about a year ago and I was heartbroken. I wasn’t the best either , I did my best, but he needed so much more than an old disabled woman lol. That dog stayed by my side everywhere I went. No one ever had to ask where he was they just had to look for me…. Dogs are amazing! Now I am a proud very great cat mother and Grandmother or M2 as I prefer it and I have to say I freaking love my cats so much but I’d kill for just one more good day with my dog who always fought through his pains and ills just for me I think until he couldn’t anymore. No matter what, unless you beat and abuse them, dogs will love you through it.
This has won some awards, including one from Cannes this year.
I've been there. This song means so many different thing's. Everyone deserves a second chance ♥️♥️
Yes this story is told by the dog
You should check out Mo Pitney's Just a Dog but do the version where he is talking about why he wrote the song. That one will get ya. Best song about loving a furry family member.
My dog is a major part of my support group!!
This is from the dogs perspective. At the end she looks and sees neither because he came to help his dog cross the rainbow bridge.
F this song hits home I all ways had pets (more like family) no matter what there all ways there for me a few years a go I was dealing with mental health and tried to end it all think God the gun jammed only time it ever did but when I opened the door after waking up ( took a lot of pills and was drinking on top of it one of the worst times in my life ) in the hall way was all my cats climbing up me like they new what had happened I wish I could say that was the end of it but every time I get depressed and thank about leaving this world they are there for me my blind cats sits by the door so she knows when I'm home I love my wife with all my heart but my pets is what makes it hard to leave I know my wife would be ok but I'm not sure they would be
I have been probably every type of meeting , church or temple and I just believe in any open door is some positive meaning or lesson out of it and still working on closing some but I tend to care for more others more then self.
Great song but there is another song called Feed Jake it always gets my heart and makes me cry
Dogs are the most loyal creatures in the world! Over the past 40+ years I have rescued 150 dog's! I'm not saying that I kept them all, what I did do was vetted them for shots, health, and fixed them. I also have trained many for safety with families! Then I would rehome them. I have had a dog in my life for close to 50 years! If you have a doubt of a dog's loyalty, just spell dog backwards God 🙏❤️🐕❤️🐶❤️
Be there for people who need someone to talk to because I'd rather listen to there story than visit them at the Funeral Home
I attended some AA meetings. They tried to tell me an imaginary being was going to solve my problems. I called bs on that. I HAVE TO FIX IT MYSELF! That's what a Giant Omnipotent Deity would expect.
The song was from the dog’s perspective and the end was the dog dying and his dad taking him home with him
I absolutely love this song. I don’t know if you caught it or not, but the song was actually song from the perspective of the dog.
I actually seen him play this song in concert he was one of the ones who was on tour/opening for Jelly Roll back on Oct Friday the 13th.. But I can relate sooo much to this song because I have a black lab like thats part of the household now from since he just maybe like 1 year old but also at the same time struggled with the whole addiction process for over the last 7 years and I live in New Smyrna Beach we also have a State Road 44 for a minute I thought he was talking about here but then he was singing about Tennessee lol. But he wrote this song from the dog’s point of view which is amazing!! But Chase is actually from Ormond Beach born & raised same county as I’m in like 30 minutes away.
Bench seat in truck is the best. And when you mention bench seat to a player...it means riding pine.
Hadn't seen this video before. Some of the best movies are less than 5 minutes long.
What is this song reaction couldn't come through at a better time I've been sitting here all night thinking about relapse I've been clean for 2 years and life has gotten hard the last year and for some reason I think going back would be a better way but I'm trying to fight it and the song just made me realize that I should fight
This song is in act from the perspective of the dog at the end of the video where she looks out the dogs and chase aren’t there because the dog passed aswell and they both met up again
First time I heard a song from an animals point of view and it had me in tears
And the thing is I’ve watched this music video a couple times and it’s through the dog point of view I was mind blown
wow, what a song.
Love animals! ❤ and I have been feeling alone and miss someone wanting to love me.
This was dang from the point of view of his dog brother
I don’t know why this song didn’t get song of the year or video of the year best video and song ever in country music.
27 years of sobriety We Do Recover
To sad for me 😢
love love this song and video
Seb play Sugarland singing the song Stay- you’ll be in tears
I'm balling
Done AA, NA and Adam. Till I turned to Jesus Christ I couldn't do it. It's God that helps you make the changes in your life you need to make. That same unconditional LOVE comes from JESUS CHRIST. JUST THINK dog spelled backwards is God. A Dog is truly God's creature made for hummans.
I go with my husband. And this program will help everyone
I think her getting pregnant was too much pressure for him to take.
its good and sad song and was told by the dog
