Was at his show on sept 27th 2022 and I yelled for this song and he played it and it was so beautiful he is a true legend walking amongst us I love you shakey

Discovered Shakey last night just before I was going to go to hour later I was still listening to him on here haha. These are the artists I wait and hope to discover....he's awesome :)

Please marry me, Mona Lee
I need someplace to hide
If you can't bind my hands in wedding bands
Then I'll daisy chain my life away, my Lord
Then I'll daisy chain my life away, my Lord
I wish I had a place to stay, my Lord
I wish I had a place to stay

But no home in sight
That banners fly
Oh, scarlet, white, and blue
My brothers and me will hang from our family tree
As the boys who fought and died for you, my Lord
The boys who fought and died for you, my Lord
Just like screaming into the storm, my Lord
Just like screaming into the storm

So please find my bones
And mail them home
You know I miss my family
One bullet strayed
And my soul flew away
And it sank right to the ocean floor, my Lord
Well, it sank right to the ocean floor, my Lord
I'll daisy chain my life no more, my Lord
I'll daisy chain my life no more

I could watch/listen to him all day...and sometimes do.

Quite possibly my favourite Shakey performance out of everything I've ever seen of his on YouTube. Beautiful picking and guitar tone. That voice. Haunting, melancholy lyrics/song. It takes a real artist to be able to transport you into a deeper realm.

[brandik]

He’s seriously gorgeous. And that voice 🔥

This is the video that first introduced me to Shakey Graves several years ago. I've been a fan ever since. Thank you KEXP for turning me onto so many amazing artists through the years.

[motherkyky]

This is the type of music that makes my soul feel at home

[mayleighkandt]

I love the quality sound in this video. Captures all the right plucking and voice. Love this song.

[cwinning]

Can't believe I first watched this video 9 years ago. Time is fleeting.

[MissileDropKid]

I thank the Lord every day for giving us Shakey

[deeb]

so just started listening to you, tonight, never listened to you, before, yeah and saw the Daisy Chains, video title, so I had to click on it because I had a dog named Daisy, then.... I was thinking, hmm.. I wonder if he's married? and you started singing will you marry me I about fell off my chair, too funny!!! you are so talented

[dylanmccaskill]

This my favorite performance of this song and probably my favorite war song period.

It helped keep me from signing my ass away to the Army when I felt like I had no other options.

Stop screaming into that old storm people…

Long live Shakey Graves ❤️🙏
