Nat hits all the marks with this classic masterpiece. The fact that it was released on the great " Stax" label also gives me chills. Somewhere Otis Redding is smiling and singing along.

Made my mom cry with this song. It's such a beautiful song between a son and mother who were close, but the mom was pretty much always correct in her assumptions. I've now surpassed what my mother expected, and now it's a song in honor of my mom and how she saw the potential in me that I never even knew I had. Love you, mom.

[@georgiaboy7674]

This is one of those songs that's even better live.

[@sartainja]

[@sccantfindahandle767]

Is the same guy playing drums, keyboards and sax?

[@kylerichards2514]

The song chords out like its primarily F/B but Nathaniel is playing G/C... does anyone know if he is tuning down a full step for the song?

[@sullyb23511]

I was asking the same thing. You may have figured it out. I was thinking it was some kind of open tuning. :/ Ten minutes later: Dude! That's exactly what he's doing! :-)

[@sharecroppersmule7361]

Yes, i watched a lesson on this song. Tune down a full step

[@buckwade5454]

Just sounds better...

[@snapdragon7505]

Guitar sounds a little like a Rolling Stones song...maybe Wild Horses

[@CreativeButcher]

That turquoise though....
