Hells ya If I won the lotto on my 10 thousand acre ranch in Montana Play all night dude as long as there was whisky I am sure hes in!!! hey ya can only dream till I win the lotto!!
I am 63 years old and it seems every time I turn around I am attending a funeral of a friend or family member that left this earth all too soon. I guess that sort thing is to be expected when you get to be my age. Life is short it seems. But I do know Heaven is forever.
I know exactly what you mean. I'm only 40 and I've buried all of my longtime friends except for one and he and I both share the honorary title of uncle to the children they've left behind. Between baseball games, gymnastics practice and band recitals neither of us have hardly any time to spare these days but I wouldn't have it any other way.
Just lost my father a 82nd airborne Grenada vet this morning he lost his battle to lung cancer....hardest thing ive ever been thru in my life at only 27yrs old. I listened to this song after and bald like a baby beside his body. I love you dad. Charles steven Westover
I lost my Dad this past March. Right before I turned 30. I feel you, too young for this. I just know they are resting in heaven! Prayers for you and your family!
This song kills me,(😢😢)it always reminds me of my Grandpa,he passed 7 yrs ago due to health complications.That man taught me so much ,I would work with him in the summer as a teen.He taught me a trade( construction),and he taught me how to be a man.He taught me how to enjoy simple things like gardening, going for along drive on old back roads.Or just drinking a ice cold beer after working all day in the hot sun,he would say "If you work like a grown man then you should be allowed to drink like one too"He taught me self respect,honesty,and so much about life .He was a great friend ,and a awesome down to earth man.He wasnt my blood grandpa(I have never meet my blood one),and he didnt have to love me like he did ,BUT, he did!!Best grandfather a boy could ever have.I love and miss you Pappa Wes,I know your with God and Jesus enjoying what you deserve .
Did we have the same grandpa?? I played this on repeat after my grandpa passed. He was my best friend. We were inseparable. Thank you for this comment 💔💙
My grandpa was my hero and I'm 71 but I would drive the tractor while he fed the hay baler. Loved that man to pieces but he died at 83 while I was in the hospital. Can't help but think grief may have caused his stroke that killed him. He learned I would never walk again. Love you my sweet Dad. Hope to see you in heaven.
My older brother passed away in his sleep last night and it is by far one of the most saddest days of my life right now. I will always miss and love you brother! R.I.P Uriah love u brother.
@Chris Stapleton your speech accent isn't very Kentucky or Tennessee. LOL. But that's ok..your music makes up for it. Before I say anything about where I'm watching from and if you remember me. Tell me a memory you have.
Losing husband in 94 , Left raising our three kids alone was hardest thing I thought id ever encounter .. then 2011 I lost my daughter ... She now is buried nearest him ... This song says so much for me .. I am not a drinker at All ..but they liked beer ..so each year I go to this place I bring they're favorite beer and I drink a beer !! Then place a rose in can an PLAY this song for them ... It's tuffer than most will ever know .. but this song heals as the can slowly drifts down the river ...
In 1964, 2 boys from Bettendorf Iowa met down at the Mississippi River. They made themselves a rope swing under the span of the I-74 Bridge. Who would know that friendship would last for over 53 years. On Saturday, Oct 21 my husband's childhood friend was cleaning his gutters and fell off his roof. He died instantly. We just saw Chris on Oct. 5 at the Tax Slayer Center in Moline, IL. Ironically, the Slayer is directly across the river from where the old rope swing used to be. At the time, my husband could not relate to this song... he sure can now.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I couldn’t imagine losing a child, but I understand loss. I lost both my grandparents a couple of years ago within two days of each other from COVID My grandma raised me for the first ten years of my life and was my best friend and one of, if not the only person who got through to me when I was doing things I shouldn’t have been doing for the following fifteen years. She had such a light about her, could brighten a room with her laughter and bring out the best in people. She found my grandfather after life had taken them separate ways for decades (they were friends in their youth and both had marriages that went south) and they fell in love and got married and lived a very happy 16 years together. He became a part of our family and the rest is history. They were both beautiful people and I miss them dearly. Sometimes when I have a particularly rough day, I’ll go back and listen so some of the voicemails they left me since it’s the closest thing I can get to hearing their actual voices. I’m sorry, I’m rambling, but I guess I’m saying is I don’t know you, your son, or your stories in life, but I’d like to think even though we all make mistakes, some with dire consequences, our mistakes don’t define who we are as people unless we continue to make them. Our experiences make us grow and change sometimes for better, sometimes for worse, but we can’t hang onto regret and ‘what could’ve been’. We can only control who we are now and there’s a small part of me, when I’m not making mistakes (because I’m human) that carries the lessons my grandparents taught me in my day to day life, like a voice in my whispering in my ear, and that a part of them, as cheesy as it sounds, continues to live on in me. I can only hope that your son’s spirit lives on in you in a similar way. I wish you the best and once again, I’m incredibly sorry for your loss. No one should have to go through what you’re going through.
3-18-19 makes 1585 days and it's not one damn bit easier. I've cried at least once a day since 11-14-14. I never thought it possible to miss someone like this. Mark, brother I see you every day in my little girl, oh I wish she'd know you. She acts just like you. I know you are looking over her. I'm no longer mad at you or God, I'm trying to be thankful for the time I had with you instead of loathing the time without you. Till I see you again I'll be on peir. Love you man. Rest easy brother.
His version. was played at my Sister's funeral. she passed away this past mothers day. she was the one that introduced his music, & that awesome voice to me.
My sister passed away June 26, 2012. She thought her light was not bright enough. I miss her more then life itself some days. She was so beautiful, crazy and young. She didn't know that she is and was so special to us all. This one is for you Patricia Lee. See you on this side or the other.
@@sebastienmccarthy1483 spend so much time with him buddy, all the time you could. You'll learn a lot from him. I wish to yours a long and healthy life and future.
Sitting by Chris Stapleton would be a dream for me bc he is an amazing country singer ever and sitting by him by a bonfire or campfire would be a dream come true
I miss you so much momma. I've caried you in my heart and held on to you in my best dreams. I'll be coming home to you as soon as my field is harvested.
Heard this song at a pool bar earlier today so I shazamed it. Fast foward 7 hours later im watching the ranch this song started playing so I googled the lyrics and drink a beer popped up
Got to wake up for work in 4 hours... Sometimes you just need to sacrifice sleep for some spiritual enrichment. Tomorrow is gonna be a rough one... sixer is looking a little light right now.
My father passed away 9-11-2018. When i listen to this song and I am drinking a beer looking into the sky. I feel him. Hes my best friend. I have two sons. I just hope they look at me the way I look at my father. I’ll see you when I see you dad. Save me a tee time.
22 years ago when l lost Lisa, I'd sit on the pier and drink one for her, now it's my turn, l hope Chris or some one drinks one for me. thank you Chris
I lost my 19 year old son on 3/20/2014. He was the baby of 4. Three older sisters and then him. Never knew Chris wrote this song until a couple months ago. Always heard the Luke Bryan version. That is great too. Don't cut yourself short Chris. Me and my dad will see you and Hank at DTE (Pine Knob). Please play this tune!! You got it for sure brother!!
I have two boys of my own, and I can't even start to imagine your loss. I'm not much of a drinking man, but next time I drink a beer, I'll have one for you and your baby boy. Big hug from Mexico my brother.
+Jorge Villalobos, Thank you. Still in courts trying to prosecute the guy who killed him. it's been 2 1/2 years. Will be nice to finally see this guy behind bars for life. Thanks again for the kind words.
I woke up this morning to find out that one of my childhood friends passed away in a car crash last night. Thanks Chris for this amazing song. Rest in peace Austin "Noodle" Newell.
I lost three friends that I loved like brothers I was raised with them we did everything together . I ended up going down a bad road with drugs and I ended up going to rehab for a year and within months of each other my brothers passed away from over doses and suicide .. chris sings this song like no other and I break down every time I listen to it .. I know my brothers are in a better place and Chris reassures me of that Everytime .. god bless anyone whose lost a loved one
Lost my baby brother 1 1/2 years ago at 37 yrs of age. Taken way too early as he left behind a wife and 2 little girls. I play acoustic and this is my remembrance song in his honour! Thanks to Luke and Chris for this fantastic song!
Lost a friend of mine and my older sister’s. His birthday is coming up soon and I can’t even imagine what kind of hell she’ll go through knowing her baby brother won’t be there..he was taken away way too soon, only 15. He died last year, August 11th.
i prefer rock music of all kinds over any other music ESPECIALLY COUNTRY and this song put me to tears. its definitely on my playlist. good job chris 🖒🏻
I lost my pup a few days ago and heard this song(driving to work yesterday) how meaningful and accurate the words are.. I had to pull over and I just broke down.. miss you Packer.
When I got the news today I didn't know what to say. So I just hung up the phone. I took a walk to clear my head, This is where the walking lead Can't believe you're really gone Don't feel like going home So I'm gonna sit right here On the edge of this pier Watch the sunset disappear And drink a beer Funny how the good ones go Too soon, but the good lord knows The reasons why i guess Sometimes the greater plan is kinda hard to understand Right now it don't make sense I can't make it all make sense So I'm gonna sit right here On the edge of this pier Watch the sunset disappear And drink a beer So long my friend, until we meet again I'll remember you And all the times we used to Sit right here on the edge of this pier Watch the sunset disappear And drink a beer Drink a beer, drink a beer
"Drink a Beer" is a song written by Jim Beavers and Chris Stapleton and recorded by American country music artist Luke Bryan. It was released in November 2013 as the third single from his fourth studio album, Crash My Party, and became his seventh number one on the Billboard Country Airplay chart in February 2014. Bryan has described "Drink a Beer" as "the coolest sad song ever" and notes he connects with the story after having lost both of his siblings.
Lost my older brother yesterday...wasn't there to say good bye...now its hard to sleep. have to work today but this lingers on my mind...only memories remain...keep my family in prayers...always love you Mitch...
I dedicate this song to my good friend Nick Jones. We never got to have that beer together. There will be plenty when we meet again brother. RIP my dear friend.
Imagine sitting next to a bonfire with your buddies and Chris playing guitar all night long... Man what a night that would be.
agree
I'd love to be there!!
would stay all night long
Hells ya If I won the lotto on my 10 thousand acre ranch in Montana Play all night dude as long as there was whisky I am sure hes in!!! hey ya can only dream till I win the lotto!!
Silas_Merritt hell yeah
Has anyone noticed that Chris sings every song better than other artists? He’s a true genius
Well, he wrote this song.
@@johntherevelator2020 ah didn’t know that
@@mrphill8028 I didn't either, until I read the comments a while back, l.o.l.
fuk yeah!!!
It's also because he doesn't use autotune. He's actually good enough to be where he is. Most of the others aren't.
He could sing happy birthday and still make a grown man cry.
For all you "Country Fans" Chris actually wrote this song
I always thought it was Luke Bryan lol
no shit..
I don't think Luke Bryan has ever written a song....
Jason S who's wrong?
not u Aaron, some of the replies from your post. I know Chris wrote this

I just turned 63 and I know the feeling . Seems like everyday I get a call
Damn ya'll Im 45, & this ain't nothing to look forward to.... :(
I'm 56 and I just lost my second sister. Death is apart of life. I have a big family and I'm thankful for everyone of them. Jesus is coming!
Chris Stapleton answers George Jones question Who's going to fill their Shoes. He's doing it
Damn right! Tyler Childers too
Dont forget people like Sturgill Simpson that keep the old sound of country alive.
And even luke combs

He’s great but idk about that

Hey man…. My dad died in 2018 and his best friend played an acoustic guitar and sang this song at his funeral. It makes me cry every time I hear it

Lost a friend of mine and my older sister’s. His birthday is coming up soon and I can’t even imagine what kind of hell she’ll go through knowing her baby brother won’t be there..he was taken away way too soon, only 15. He died last year, August 11th.
Amazing Artists!! Saw him at Wrigley Field yesterday...Excellent!!
my buddy and platoon sgt in Iraq died from cancer 2 weeks ago he was a great man this song makes me think of him
i prefer rock music of all kinds over any other music ESPECIALLY COUNTRY and this song put me to tears. its definitely on my playlist. good job chris 🖒🏻
I lost my pup a few days ago and heard this song(driving to work yesterday) how meaningful and accurate the words are.. I had to pull over and I just broke down.. miss you Packer.
Dedicating this song to my mom who lost her battle with cancer. I love you mom, rest in peace.
When I got the news today
I didn't know what to say.
So I just hung up the phone.
I took a walk to clear my head,
This is where the walking lead
Can't believe you're really gone
Don't feel like going home
So I'm gonna sit right here
On the edge of this pier
Watch the sunset disappear
And drink a beer
Funny how the good ones go
Too soon, but the good lord knows
The reasons why i guess
Sometimes the greater plan is kinda hard to understand
Right now it don't make sense
I can't make it all make sense
So I'm gonna sit right here
On the edge of this pier
Watch the sunset disappear
And drink a beer
So long my friend, until we meet again
I'll remember you
And all the times we used to
Sit right here on the edge of this pier
Watch the sunset disappear
And drink a beer
Drink a beer, drink a beer
"The reasons why, I guess"
thank you
@@wjeramethanks! Fixed

"20"
"Drink a Beer" is a song written by Jim Beavers and Chris Stapleton and recorded by American country music artist Luke Bryan. It was released in November 2013 as the third single from his fourth studio album, Crash My Party, and became his seventh number one on the Billboard Country Airplay chart in February 2014. Bryan has described "Drink a Beer" as "the coolest sad song ever" and notes he connects with the story after having lost both of his siblings.
Lost my older brother yesterday...wasn't there to say good bye...now its hard to sleep. have to work today but this lingers on my mind...only memories remain...keep my family in prayers...always love you Mitch...
I dedicate this song to my good friend Nick Jones. We never got to have that beer together. There will be plenty when we meet again brother. RIP my dear friend.
I love this :) makes me think of my dad. Rest in peace. I love you
I know the feeling brother I lost my dad 3 years ago and still never got over it
one of the all-time greatest songwriters
Sitting here trying to wrap my head around that my best bud of almost 40 years is gone.
This song reminds me of a man that was a close friend. miss him greatly.
I dedicated this song to a dear friend of mine I have known him since I was 18 years old I'm 57 now rest in peace CW
2018.
Still playing this, for those who aren't here to drink a beer with me...
One day, we'll see each other again.
i lost my best friend today i had known him for years i never got to say goodbye😢😢
this is how I feel today
He sings country music Kentucky style, a little southern, with a little kick to it.....keep writing Chris....awesome stuff.
Chuck Bratcher he sounds good but he didn't write this song, it's a Luke Bryan song but honestly in some ways he sings it better
@@KyleHaines615 he actually wrote this song for Luke bryan
Kyle Haines Chris Stapleton wrote this
Kyle Haines Lmfao. You think Luke wrote this song? Luke doesn’t write any of his songs.
I Lost My Best Friend Back in 2010 and it Still Hurts Every God Damn day, Friends for Over 22 years, Sadly He took his own life R.I.P J.J.I
i am older than Chris Stapleton and yet he reminds me so much of my father......rip dad
