LYRICS
I'm sorry
I heard about the bad news today
A crowd of people around you
Telling you it's okay
And everything happens for a reason
When you lose a part of yourself
To somebody you know
It takes a lot to let go
Every breath that you remember
Pictures fade away but memory is forever
An empty chair at all the tables
And I'll be seeing you when all my days boil down
But it's better where you're going anyway
I'm sorry
I heard about the bad news today
It's really hard to get through
Tough times and long days
But it really just depends on the season
For now we'll say goodbye
We know it's not the last time
I've lost the best part of my day
But it's better where you're going anyway
For now we'll say goodbye
We know it's not the last time
I've lost the best part of my day
This is the last thing
I will remember
It's better where you're going anyway

It’ll be awesome I know that!

[@Fatality2k6]

mm i don't know there's a list that i want to hear like: i don't wanna know, understatement, hit or miss, it's all downhill from here, head on colission... either way the acoustics sessions are awesome so i'll take whatever you upload jajaj.

[@jeanpaulcarrascotoribio5332]

Dressed to kill Yeah!!! Greetings from Peru

[@Jason-bg7jc]

Jordan has done a great job protecting his voice over the years.

[@neostiv]

Thats so true he still keeps that younger sound

[@jayfm749]

his voice sounds better and better like wine

[@ashhole2955]

Definitely even live sounds like butter

[@johnmoyarbmg5845]

The vocals are mastered

[@jeanettetaurozzi6415]

I love all NFG music. But when they fo acoustic songs you can really hear Jordan’s voice I loveeeeeee it! 😅😅😅 There music never gets bad only better with age Cyrus best pop punk drummer 🥁 ever, Jordan best snotty nasal bratty nasal beautiful voice ever in pop punk!! 🎧 🎸 🎤 💛💛💛💛💛💛 NFG forever!

[@constantsong]

Fingers crossed for Head On Collision, but literally anything will make me happy because that album is flawless.

[@timothysnave]

It's honestly one of like three albums ever released that I can call flawless with a straight face. I wouldn't change a thing on it, down to the mixing and mastering. It's perfect.

[@noahsdad86]

Yessss. Head on collision. There was a drive thru records sampler way back in the day that had a version but I would love to hear a new one

[@timothysnave]

@@noahsdad86 I remember that! That's where I first heard Finch!

[@noahsdad86]

@@timothysnave So many good bands on that label back in the day! But seriously @New Found Glory please for the love of all things good and holy re-release the entire Stick and Stones as a completely acoustic album, same song order. We need it, its been a rough year.

[@timothysnave]

@@noahsdad86 seconded. That would be amazing.

[@whowhatwhen21]

My grandpa was an incredible man and an inspiration to so many of us. He passed away on August 26, 2011. I had been a NFG fan since high school so I knew the background of the song “Sonny”. I was tasked with creating his memorial slideshow. The full day that I worked on it I cried so many tears listening to “Sonny” on repeat. Tonight, on the eve of the 9th anniversary of his passing, I cry tears of joy. Just thinking the release of the acoustic version is some random sign of his presence. A sign that he still watches over me always. Epa Grampito. Gracias a Dios.

[@brianbaker8978]

He'll always be with you. much love dude.

[@rustysmittyful]

Oh, man, thanks for sharing!

[@highspiritsholistic5434]

They are always with us!!

[@ANGLERSPARADISE91]

God bless you and your grandpa bro

[@jerryjanik480]

I just lost my uncle and grandmother just this in 2021 always reminded me of my grandfather my grandmother's husband something hello every time I hear the song reminds me of everyone out that I have lost over the years makes me smile and makes me cry it makes me hope for the to the Future my niece and nephew our family members who have passed on to

[@DovidYudkowitz]

It's Been a Summer

[@shiftyswizzle8817]

YESYESYES

[@justmehere34]

“What song should we play next?” YOUR ENTIRE CATALOGUE. Not one of us will complain.

[@360.Tapestry]

they have so many damn greats

[@Thesacredlightbehindyoureyes]

I wish I could just have them in a tiny box in my room to open and perform their songs for me when life sucks. Pint size glory lol

[@RunningSD]

funny story about this album. i would play the cd every morning while my mom took me to school(back in 2002). by mid semester she was singing along with me.

[@Memorh19]

Nice.

[@tonkashouse]

Your Mom was a good mom.

[@baanjo6237]

that's cool man!

[@AditBarrels]

your mom's rock!!!

[@anthonymoy4471]

Sameee broooo

[@christophertrechok6327]

We need a NFG acoustic album of the greatest hits. Love this.

[@LoneWolf-479]

New acoustic album Jan 28th. 8 new songs & 8 classics!

[@martinikhitam4069]

New found glory getting older, is getting stronger.

[@rbilsker]

😢 five star song from a five star band. ❤

[@djtek9ine]

When my best friend died in 2002, I didn’t know how to express my feelings and emotions. Then I heard this song for the first time 6 months later and ever since, it alway makes me think of her. Tears of joy and sadness every time it gets played.

[@jamongi1]

Selfless, Hit or Miss, Understatment or At Least I’m Known For Something please!! Love the acoustic covers and NFG!!!

[@chelfan33]

The story so far

[@arthuroliveira4326]

Jordan still have a perfect voice even 20 years after

[@johnmoyarbmg5845]

Vocals are mastered almost auto tune

[@behnfgfan8230]

Such a sad day my aunt passed away today nothing like some NFG to get me through this tough day. Thanks for all the awesome music you have made over the years 🤘

[@monzenfrancisoribiana1041]

I'm so sorry for your loss. I know it so hard but you're gonna be okay soon 😊

[@behnfgfan8230]

Thanks 🤘

[@That_JRPG_Bro]

Waits patiently for the inevitable acoustic EP that should be coming from these

[@amc78]

Ok I guess. But why not just add these to a KZbin playlist. Same thing ha

[@brendanlamagdeleine4132]

god damn this is beautiful

[@mr.rogers3dworld530]

The sticks and stones album is probably my favorite album. Great job. Can’t wait to hear more

[@johnmoyarbmg5845]

The self titled well always be my favorite but I can see sticks & stones being just as good

[@myannabear05]

Sticks and stones will always be my favorite

[@8bitKatwalk]

when i die , boulders. those songs were with me at the lowest of times and helped in ways i cant imagine. they would give me tears of joy to hear acoustic

[@hitormisskrism455]

I heard Boulders at their 20 year tour and it was one of the best times seeing them. I've waiting so long for them to play it live.

[@timothysnave]

Ooh boulders. That would be great.

[@davidstanley9543]

The lyrics can be sad, but if you listen to it enough you can actually gain positive perspective. It's always about trying to find good from a bad situation. Learning from past mistakes and applying it to future situations.

[@ggkoukla]

For many of us who were in HS around early 2000's and lost a friend... And/or many other life situations in the coming years ...This song is therapy. ❤🫶

[@foreverunderground]

I miss you mom!! RIP 😢

[@aaronprisock]

“Everyone has toothpick on their table... they like the shishkebab cause the beef has good flavor”....

[@reemsreg]

Bonus track!! I’ve still got the cd in my car

[@halfpintyt]

Only the true fans know.

[@Scottatnord]

Someone's in your house.

[@trendkill84]

Scared the living crap out of me when I woke up to that track playing!!

[@matthewnielsen4891]

MAAKE WAYYY FOR THE QUEEEEN

[@frankwalerius1470]

Re-release, remake, new, old... it doesn't matter. Please, keep making music. Quality of life is better with your melodies in it! Can't wait to see you guys again live!

[@ninastull2223]

I lost my sister last May unexpectedly. We shared a love for NFG and this song just breaks and soothes my heart.

[@sgp446]

I lost my father last year.. much respect and much love ❤️

[@chrisconnolly4849]

So good.

[@allenhall7173]

Sonny

[@tairondeoliveira4276]

R.i.P. Rodrigo († 2015), my dear uncle. This is our song.

[@brantisonfire]

These would be awesome to be released as an acoustic album. Honestly, you could use one of those KZbin to MP3 websites and create your own for personal consumption.

[@scottluebke5012]

A friend bought me Sticks and Stones back in 2002 or so. Totally random. I’d never even heard of the band. We were both stationed in Italy with the Air Force at the time. Probably 20 years old. Maybe 19. I can’t count how many times I’ve listened to this album through. And here I am still listening all these years later.

[@Crazydrummerist]

My aunt passed away three years ago, I miss her every day and every night, she was like my mother when she left us, she took a piece of my heart with her I hope that she is in the place that she deserves. I miss her so much 😔😔😪

[@JK-gm6kk]

Oh god, the tears jerk just as hard. Lost my father unexpectedly in 2019, and was devastating. My mom got a golden retriever pup like 6 months later, and i immediately thought of this song, because he had wanted to name him Sonny, so thats what she did.

[@matthewsharp4024]

The whole album is amazing but I wanna hear understatement or something I called personalty

[@8bitKatwalk]

i love sticks and stones.

[@endy5930]

I wanna hear King of wishful thinking 🤘

[@Jackie535]

Don’t forget Sucker.....

[@leovicencio9468]

this song is amazing ❤

[@jessebowles5632]

They got the drummer on a guitar too... so much talent

[@Kyrax88]

Seriously one of my fav NFG songs - especially acoustic!

[@beezybeez7231]

This is so good but you must hear “Winding Road” or “A Place Called Here” by SLT 🤘🎶🎧

[@Fatwreckman]

In January of 2020, my uncle passed away after a hell of a fight against cancer. Our home life wasn't great and he was there for us when all the adults we should have been able to trust weren’t acting right. I don't think that I stopped listening to the Sticks and Stones version of this song until the Summer had started. Thank you for this version. 😊

[@beezybeez7231]

This is so good but you must hear “Winding Road” or “A Place Called Here” by SLT 🤘🎶🎧

[@ashleypvb85]

nailed it. such an amazing song. still not sure how you sing it without crying

[@skaterscourse2050]

Dressed to kill!!! 🇵🇭

[@floridalottery3134]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@christinavarney7911]

Agreed

[@abadvardy6538]

Hell yeah

[@nytmare11]

I know it's hard for you...

[@sgtstreetmeat]

god i love this song 😊

[@pruchi]

Please tell me that all these acoustic recordings are going towards a NFG acoustic album!!

[@joshuaschmidinger3993]

YES! Invited fir sonny and now it's here. One of my favorites from sticks and stones and underrated cuz everybody wants "understatement" a good song but "sonny"gets left out alot ☹ glad I saw the 10th anniversary show of stick and stones and they played the whole album(just like I like it 😎👍😊) plus more...love NFG! 👏🤘🔥❤

[@theseferalkids7750]

When that second guitar comes in at the beginning 🤘😆🤟

[@VarunaChaotic]

I would say these guys have been a top ten favorite since my sophomore year of HS back in 2003

[@stephanehoude3436]

such a good song!

[@marmarbinx3458]

Omfg I did not know this version existed! Holy shit I love it.

[@mariogaol7575]

My fave song from Stick and Stone

[@nfgatorgal]

I KNEW it was gonna be Sonny!! Love it!!

[@universalponcho]

Takes me back in a good way.

[@ggkoukla]

I'm on my anniversary of bilateral mastectomy...9/26/16. Breast cancer diagnosis. Trying to get husband to understand. Love NFG so much. Thank you 🔥❤️🤗

[@cjb1735]

The first band I fell in love with. Oh so many years ago.

[@alexanderheimer8885]

you guys nailed that. I've been listening to this since it came out, and the thing is.. I always will. This is a forever album. I'm here listening to this song because I just found out my high school girlfriend passed away, and we used to listen to this album.

[@beezybeez7231]

This is so good but you must hear “Winding Road” or “A Place Called Here” by SLT 🤘🎶🎧

[@Channyg4lyfe]

One of my favorite songs from NFG

[@sleepytea-nu4oe]

Big respect fellas. you guys have been absolutely solid since day 1... although your music has stayed true, i'd still pick my friends over you.

[@cityspiritsleeps]

This was the first song where I was like "I really love NFG"

[@silentfox8]

omfg that acoustic bass

[@dropdeadbitch7]

I love when they actually add the harmony from the studio version to their live songs. Way to go Chad!! I absolutely love this.

[@jessicakenawell8673]

This song still brings up so much emotion. When I saw it on tour I almost cried

[@riodermawan71]

I have no idea that Sonny can be leveled up like this, so good to hear it in acoustic version. Brings me back to high school..

[@kimhaedt7765]

Sonny!!!!

[@rodrigonbr]

more and more!

[@guitaristchris]

So glad this song won. Its one of my favourites

[@B1055BH]

I know dude. When I saw it was “Sonny” I was like, yes, I finally won something!

[@ericjeffries144]

Slipping away acoustic would be amazing!

[@ronin1011]

Gets me every damn time.

[@twolefthandsgaming8087]

I lost my dad 21 years ago, just a year or two before I'd discover NFG. This is one of the songs I like to use to remember him, since he inspired my love of music.

[@OsagieGuobadia]

Best acoustic song ever, New Found Glory! : )

[@aferoyoudi3082]

Good song from Sticks & Stones album. Greetings from Indonesia

[@carlmtz600]

'Throphy' is an amazing one.

[@karlnaumann9370]

Classic song

[@GSR2step]

Way to make me cry guys.

[@nortonfalarz4000]

Thanks. Brazil here

[@andreswolfgang5783]

Voice is so smooth

[@Louprocks]

This brings back so many memories. thank you for being a part of our lives for so long !

[@kyleheywood1132]

Of all the NFG songs, this one might hit me the hardest right in the feels. Thanks for doing this version!

[@johnmoyarbmg5845]

Same here lost my mom in 2004 & last year lost my twin brother. It's sad. The other day my family & I took a charter bus to the Astros game in Houston on the way back home played this song. I almost busted out crying

[@timothysnave]

This has always been one of my favorites. Can we expect a CD of all these performances, once we're out the other end of all this? I'd pay real money for it.

[@joshuajohnson492]

THIS RULES

[@zerostarinc]

My personal favorite nfg song

[@MrFej80]

Ageing Like fine wine

[@brianbaker8978]

I was 14 when i heard this album for the first time. I convinced my dad to buy me a distortion pedal so i could play along. At the music store he wanted me to show him why I needed it. I can't even remember what song I started but it was definitely from this album. 16 years later, I still play guitar, but became focused on drums. I'm 30. AndI love New Found Glory.

[@noon.....]

だいすきです♥︎︎♥︎︎

[@derfwgn7719]

LEGENDS

[@deahastaviningsih785]

Pictures fade away but memories forever 😍😍

[@MrTJ2787]

I remember sitting in the back of the car on our way to Florida listening to this entire CD. This song has stuck with me for years and the first note always takes me back to that moment. Thanks for the memories guys.

[@jazmaniac90]

thank you for this song. helped me get thru two deaths of people i cared about.

[@chrisapple1931]

This song always makes me cry. I remember listening to it after my brother died and it just felt so perfect for the pain i felt. Love and miss you bro. Thanks guys.

[@thomasgriffin2326]
