  • The best acoustic version of 1930 I've ever heard!
    Taken from Lowlands Festival 2012
    Lyrics:
    Give me mercy and a minute now
    I'm a bleed a little poison out
    I'm a cry a little river down
    And then I'm setting this whole thing on fire
    And I'm burning up the night she died
    And I'm putting every last picture aside
    I'm gonna say what I need to say
    In my very last letter to you
    'Cause you always made it clear
    Said that you'd never be my pain
    So here's to you and your bright baby blues
    And just a pause to cool the refrain
    And you said you were satisfied
    And now this body's just waiting to die
    And that you missed him sometimes but you said it's alright
    It's just a whole lot harder alone
    But I wish you knew her now
    She's a better side of me now
    And I'm doing the best I can
    It's what you wanted
    And I see you like you were there
    And I know just how you'd smile
    Mary, you looked just like it was 1930 that night
    But here the days will eat you alive
    But I won't give in tonight
    You said it's not worth my time
    And Baby don't you regard them
    And not to settle just for piece of mind
    But I can wait it out all night
    If you'll just keep breathing
    But Mary I found a sound
    And this heart keeps pouring it out
    And the glory hasn't come and it's probably gonna fade
    Like a tattoo that hides the shame
    And the reasons always fade
    And the pain gets out some day
    So I'm saying my goodbyes to your deep blue eyes
    'Cause I don't know how to say, "Stay still in the pain.
    Stay still in the pain."
    But I wish you knew her now
    She's a better side of me now
    And I'm doing the best I can
    It's what you wanted
    And I see you like you were there
    And I know just how you'd smile
    Mary, you looked just like it was 1930 that night
    If I recall the last thing you said to me
    Before it broke up, before it took you from me
    And you said, "I love you more than the stars in the sky
    But your name just escapes me tonight."

    "Said you'd never be my pain" - 7 years after his death...he's still my pain. 💔 "& I'm doing the best I can, cuz that's what you wanted."

    Just in case anyone else needs to suffer, I found out today (in 2019) that this song is about Brian's grandmother who had Alzheimer's disease. "I love you more than the stars in the sky, but your name just escapes me tonight"

      Yeah I have heard that, but I don't get at the end where he says "before we broke up, before he took you from me". "He" could be God, but the breakup line is weird.

      I lost it this morning and cried my eyes out this morning when I read this. I have a grandma that is slowly going, and I needed this, even as hard as it was. I'll probably cry everything I hear this now, but I'm still gonna learn it. I needed a new song to learn so... thanks.

    Lyrically Amazing and such sentiment behind the song. A man with a final message to a lost relative. Such an underrated song it's painful

    Simply perfection, part of me is sad that Brian and The Gaslight Anthem are not bigger than they are but its because of this that the real fans can see them every time they tour. In my view they are some of the very best songwriters and performed some of the best heart warming songs ever performed.
