The Chair by George Strait - 1985 (with lyrics)

"The Chair" is a song written by Hank Cochran and Dean Dillon and recorded by American country music artist George Strait. It was released in August 1985. The song reached number one on the country music charts in both the United States and Canada in 1985.

"The Chair" was named by CMT as one of the Top 100 country songs of all time, posting at number 24 on that list. Something that sets "The Chair" apart for most other songs of any style - it has no refrain or chorus. Only the basic melody repeats throughout the song.

My grandfather died in 2015 had a certain spot at our kitchen table. To this day in 2022 my gma still plays it and that chair remains empty!!! Some days/nights I sit in that chair and think about him!! I love you gpa best man/father I’ve ever met! Fly hi with uncle T! I love you!!!!

Aug. 2023, first time listen. Smooth, clear and clever. Would be a nice one to do at a small club, right after Amarillo.

[Badass]

I never would listen to this song when I saw it on a playlist and I had never heard it but one day at work I was listening to YouTube and auto play was on and this song happened to play and since then I listen to this song at least once a day

This song is proof that a God does indeed exist.
We have unfortunately strayed from the path of such powerfully emotional music.

Im here because Morgan Wallen made chairs fly. Like the one that flew off the roof of that bar. Ahhh to Maryland to Tennsees chairs will fly but not float over seas
