William Prince | "Broken Heart of Mine" | Western AF

William Prince could sing us anything, literally anything, and we'd stop what we are doing to listen. When his team asked if he could make the trip to Wyoming to spend sometime with us we felt honored and a little nervous.
For us, William is a sort of mountain top. Beyond having some magic in his voice, his songwriting is thoughtful, intricate, and clever. We are so damn proud to bring this one to you and we know you'll love it. If you are just learning his name, you've got a lot of good listening coming your way.
William - thank you. It means a lot to have this on our channel.

Here you go again Western AF, introducing me to an artist that will cost me entire evenings.... Thanks for that.

[@WesternAF]

We do what we can friend

[@stevenhashek8892]

[@BlakeEyedKaty]

Amen

[@maireadheffernan9943]

know that feeling buddy, could be a lot worse, God bless Western AF, saves me form the country and Irish shite on the radio

[@ksleep5715]

I’ve been such a big fan of his since Reliever was released. I’ll never forget, I was down low and just started driving one morning for the sake of going anywhere else. I kept restarting his Reliever album and had it on repeat while I cried and sang along for probably 6 hours. Truly powerful music. Music that disrupts your reality and makes you realize how fragile life is, but then repairs and calms you as you begin to understand, accept and relate to that fragile nature. He understands humanity and tells the story of being human so freaking well.

Well said

[@oneleggedturkey]

This guy has a smooth voice. I really enjoyed the unexpected phrasing he used.

[@KenneyCmusic]

I'm mind blown by his writing style. Right up my alley, and he's another first nations brother. I love it.

[@jeffcmo1957]

My man harnessing some serious John Prine vibes. Great song!

[@steveconelley4434]

Need this version on spotify so I can cry without having to have my phone unlocked and the app open

[@cheyenneenglish5185]

Well this will just break your heart. Beautiful.

[@WesternAF]

Amen

[@fl3104]

Man that's a powerful and well written song! His voice is like a warm embrace and the Martin 40 series fits just perfectly.

[@acesnoopy]

A new song that takes me back to the old days of country music. I love this

[@jmiller2934]

Colter Wall talked about his voice and talent a while back. I’ve checked him out from time to time. His voice is so smooth and easy.

[@josephpetrino1741]

My 1st time hearing him. Unique and very musical. Fine work.

[@WesternAF]

A gateway drug to more brilliant music by him. I promise

[@cedarriver]

Lovely voice, very calming. Enjoyed this! Chords and lyrics below folks Standard tuning, Capo on 1 Dadd4 xx0233 Verses G Dadd4 G / C Dadd4 G / G Dadd4 Em Dadd4 C / C Dadd4 G Chorus C G / Dadd4 G / C Em C / D G [Verse 1] Simple but I just don't understand How I could find you and lose you in one lifetime And I guess this mess is all to do with me again As you were as I am like it's always been [Chorus] Don't go faultin' the assembly, how I'm dealin' with this heartbreak I'm just doin' what they taught me with a guitar and a drink I know there's things worse than you leavin' but they seldom cross my mind Please don't judge the way I'm dealin' with this broken heart of mine [Verse 2] Easy, it could be so easy If I could just love you and not hurt you at the same time But choices, selfish choices leave me wonderin' where you've been And leave you as you were as I am, time and time again [Chorus] Don't go faultin' the assembly, how I'm dealin' with this heartbreak I'm just doin' what they taught me with a guitar and a drink There's a chance that I might change still should the good Lord give me grace and will But for now one more drink one more pill and this broken heart of mine [Chorus] Don't go faultin' the assembly, how I'm dealin' with this heartbreak I'm just doin' what they taught me with a guitar and a drink Thinkin' I should finally move on find better use for my time Maybe get around to dealin' with this broken heart of mine Gettin' tired of this feelin' and this broken heart of mine

[@WesternAF]

Thanks Cedar

[@wheninroamful]

@@WesternAF Thanks Cedar... I hope all good things come your way for always giving us the words and chords, seemingly without falter, for years now.

[@jonianddanbowen4533]

When I hear William Prince, there is something about the combination of the story he is telling and the tone of his voice, but if it is possible, I think I am hearing him with my soul, not just my ears. His songs have the feels and just make me want to close my eyes and sit with them for a minute.

[@resdog851]

Reminds me of Blaze Foley. Good stuff.

[@ronheil6558]

Every time I hear this song I reflexively go for the like button, only to find I already liked it.

[@rachaelshimek5707]

Was a pleasure to meet him while he was here in Laradise filming this. What a beautiful song!

[@andyburton4036]

Tears.

[@nlong4028]

it hurts SO good.

[@ShadySidebury]

Just one song - or is there more to come? Gorgeous track, and I love the stripped back arrangement. Many thanks, Casey

[@timsweeney9558]

Come in from playing songs under a tree for a few hours to see WIlliam Prince is on Western AF! And now you have me crying at 3 in the afternoon.

[@Derek-rv3ee]

No way! William Prince on my favourite KZbin channel! Talented Canadian artist, love him.

[@scottkidwellmusic9175]

Good morning! First of all, I'm a huge fan of your work. Congratulations! Can you please tell me what is the brand/model of this lavalier microphone? Is it wireless? Is it condenser? Need phantom power? I don't see the wires coming out of the singer! Excellent job! 😊
