This song makes me miss Cody’s grandma for them.

[justinolson]

My grandma's name was Virginia and we called her Gramma Virgie. She passed away while I was in the ICU following open heart surgery. I was 17 and the only thing I could think or talk about back then was being a cattle rancher. She'd smile and tell me about granddad and his big herd.

Well, I've got my herd now and I'm raising show cattle on the farm she and granddad built together.

I must not have grieved properly when she passed because this came on one day while clipping for a show and I broke down sobbing in front of the college kids I have working for me. It was so cathartic.

Idk why I'm telling a bunch of strangers but this feels good too.

Tyler may be a wild mountain man, but he's a good boy.

I can only imagine when his buddy heard this song for the first time.

As a Cody whose Granny just died, along with every single other thing in this song making sense in our rural life, this hurts and helps.

[jimmyhendrix]

My grandmother passed away yesterday,

“I can see her up in glory
I can see her through the pines.”

[JUSTICE]

I'm a 44 year old Construction Contractor. Why am I crying 😢

[abdullaali]

I gave up on country music. But you sir, have given me hope.

Respect.

[kydarlin]

I can’t stop listening to everything that bares your name Tyler Childers. You’re an incredible musician and I thank the good Lord I stumbled upon your music!

[travisfarmer]

Everytime he said “can’t you see her up there cody?” It hits me. Proud kentucky boy here, can’t help but think about my mawmaw when I hear this.

[carlitosmedina]

My grandmother raised me, she passed march 29th 2025. I miss her more then anything

[offgridwithdj]

My grandmother was named Virgie and she was a beautiful Appalachian woman who raised me as a son. This song hits home.

[xinruhan]

Cried 3x in the last 24 hrs due to this song. G-ma aint even dead yet, just dreading the day. Thank you for the induced appreciation of her

[BigSurJay]

Wow. This song caught me off guard. Gonna need a minute.

[bulbousoars]

This man stumbled over a couple of words in the improvised story lead up of this song and then delivers maybe one of the best live performances of a beautiful song.

[CBrown]

You made me cry. My mom had an incredibly hard life growing up in the Appalachian mountains. She met my dad and moved Indiana where we grew up dirt floor poor. I’m 63 but I can still remember her sweeping the kitchen and singing “In the Pines” under her breath. She was the only person in my life whose face lit up when I walked in the room. She passed in 1997 and I still miss her terribly. When I was deployed in the military, there were times I could feel her praying for me.

[WeAllDoinLife]

I listen to this song as loud as I can with tears in my eyes because its that damn beautiful. God bless everyone's Grandma.
