Zach Bryan - The Way Back

I saw you in my dreams last night,
You had a vandal grin framed by a suit and tie,
You were saying you were out of here,
With you breath framed by cocaine and beer,
Who’d of thought, she would ruin you,
Leave your whole damn family in shambles too,
I got a call from your mom months back,
Saying I wish he didn’t leave town like that,
Loves gonna’ bring you home,
Even God didn’t see it comin’,
But no matter where you’re at,
We’ll always find the way back,
We’ll always find the way back,
We’ll always find the way back,
Toking poison to some Killers song,
Your old man’s trans am in Kodachrome,
Bumper sticker to the back right,
State champs ‘83 through ‘85
She’s smoking cigarettes in the kitchen,
Tom and Jerry’s on the front room television,
She always sat under the oak tree,
Saying God I miss the old me,
Loves gonna’ bring you home,
Even God didn’t see it comin’,
But no matter where you’re at,
We’ll always find the way back,
We’ll always find the way back,
We’ll always find the way back,
Saw you in my dreams last night,
You had a vandal grin framed by a suit and tie,
Toking poison to some Killers song,
Your old man’s trans am in Kodachrome,
Your old man’s trans am in Kodachrome,
Your old man’s trans am in Kodachrome

This is the type of song that built his original fan base. Music fans crave raw, unpolished, true, heartfelt music....and it's so hard to find these days. This is the perfect example of what so many of us are looking for.

Sadly these types of songs don’t get sung at the concerts. I’ve been listening for many years and had the chance to see Zach at the country music festival in SC front row in the pouring rain. Would love to see a slower set with those meaningful songs. Mine Again, November Air, Someday on My Mind 💯

[@JoshMink]

The first time I saw him in was late ‘21 I believe at a tiny venue. He did play them and it was the best concert I’ve ever been to, but I looked over and said to my friend, “this is the last time we’ll ever see him play in a place like this.”

[@3deer6]

my favorite zach song is younger years and it hurts i’ll probably never see it live 😢 nonetheless i’m excited for his concert in toronto, it’s gonna be my first concert ever

His concerts are a wonderful experience. You guys owe it to yourselves to go to one.

[@nb-wp2qz]

​​​​@@TonTon.2142 Eh, it's ruined now. Saw him 3 years ago when no one cared. Less than 1,000 people. I have literally less than 0 interest in going to a concert with 50,000+ and for 5x the price. Fun while it lasted, good for him though.

[@trob2332]

I wanna let you know there is some of us that drink and listen to you alone by ourselves that express our true feelings alone. I appreciate your music, from a deeper darker state. Thank you.

My daughters best friend, Wesley Pippens , who was Zach’s biggest fan was killed tragically a few weeks ago. He and his friends were all going to his concert in AL this weekend. Now it will just be his friends in honor of Wesley. He was my daughter’s very best friend. If anyone has a way to contact Zach , I would love if he would donate his guitar to her and his mom. Wesley even had the lyric “Well the devil can scrap but the Lord has won “Tatted on his leg and Zach’s music was featured during the memorial slideshow at funeral

[@stevedave3782]

Do you think he knows how many of us he's keeping alive, just that sliver of hope that someone good, someone that made it hurts like us, fuck. Keep your head up boys!

[@aldyn_edward08]

Every song brings shivers down my spine. It’s the emotion and sincerity in his voice that gets me every time. In a world where a lot of artists seemingly don’t act like they’re human, it’s nice to find people like Zach that remind you that they are all people too, they go through ups and downs as do all of us. Thank you Zach, you’ve saved so many people’s lives with your songs including mine. I speak for everyone when I say it has been a pleasure to listen to your songs and watch how you’ve developed as a musician. Once again, thank you! Much love and respect, keep up the amazing work!

[@scotecole1308]

Bro Something in the Orange got me through some rough times. Thank you. My wife passed last July and my father is dying fast of cancer. I have a 7 yo beautiful girl. I just wanted to thank you for the song. When my wife payed her head on my collarbone she called it the nook. Lol.

Can definitely tell he’s been working with Justin Vernon. Very reminiscent of old Bon Iver and I’m so here for it. Boys of Faith was the collab I never knew I needed, been a Justin Vernon/Bon Iver fan since middle school. When ZB dropped BOF I was so delightedly surprised and instantly craved more of that sound! This satisfies that craving and then some. I hope there’s more to come. Keep it up Zach, you never disappoint us 🫶🏼 in the meantime, you could give us a BOF vinyl drop ?? 🥰🥰🥰🥰
