Zach Bryan - 28

You took a train
To the south-side of Boston
You showed me where
Your old man stayed

Took twenty-eight years of
Blood I was lost in
To feel loved on my own Birthday

And I always felt like
I’s in-between something
Like home and somewhere far away
But tonight on the West side
in a bar out in Brooklyn
I saw tears outline your face

How lucky are we?
It’s been a hell of a week
But you’re all grown now
There’s smoke seepin’ out
Of your bloody teeth
But you’re home somehow

And I’ll be upstairs
With the guitar I’s given
When I was barely fourteen
When did McGlinchey’s get so crowded?
And why are the crowds so damn green?

I lost my mind on the streets of the city
And maybe I lost all hope too
Took twenty-eight years of blood pumping through me
To get to this evening with you

How lucky are we?
It’s been a hell of a week
But we’re all grown now
There’s smoke seepin’ out
Of the bar down the street
But we’re home somehow

How lucky are we?
It’s been a hell of a week
And we’re all grown now
There’s smoke seepin’ out
Of the bar down the street
But we’re home somehow

You took a train to the south-side of Boston
You showed me where your whole heart stayed
Took twenty-eight years of blood pumpin’ through me
To feel loved on my own Birthday

Zach, I don’t know if you’re ever going to read this but sincerely, thank you. you’ve really helped get me through some rough shit. when you dropped Pink Skies it broke me but it helped me get through the loss of my dad. thank you

Going to leave this here as a reminder for myself. Whenever this gets a like I will get reminded. Sometimes I wonder why God makes me wait. I know his plan is perfect. I know God has me waiting for a reason. It feels like I've been in isolation for a long period now. I'm about to get back into doing what I love. I know God will always be with me. I give my life to Jesus Christ. I know looking back I'll be able to connect the dots. Understanding it had to happen just as it did. All the heartbreaks, setbacks, and nights worrying about if you're on the right path. It will all be lifted once I get there. To anyone out there. God will never abandon you. 7/5/24

I’m 74 now and in 1964 I was 19 living in Boston where I met my first and only love in a bar on the southend. We married 2 years laeter and had 5 kids. She passed away 3 years ago. In my entire life I’ve never heard a song that makes me think so fondly of her and beginning.

My wife gave birth to our first child on 7/2 we were listening to his album when we were still in the hospital waiting to be released on the 4th and when this song came on we both started bawling... we're both 28 and it was one hell of a week indeed thank you Zach

[rafaelcruz]

When you dropped “Hey Driver” I really was going through a fight with God after losing my brother. I really wanted to jump in a cab and just get dropped off wherever but mainly at some random exit where I could drown my liver and your music did just that for me in the best ways. Today me and God are on a better journey together and I know my brother is resting peacefully. Thank you Zach. From the bottom of my broken heavy heart, thank you brother.

[MarilynRobinette]

Zach, my 17 yr old grandson was in a fatal wreck 10 mths ago. You are his favorite artist. Hey Driver was his fav. Wish I could share his legend with you❤

[Noraa-z]

Hey Zach I don’t know if you’re going to read this but I’m ten and my parents are divorced and your songs have helped me get through a lot of it I love you so much thank you I hope your doing good ❤️

[Flipx]

Can never hate on this man. He has changed my life and how I looked at country music. I will forever see god in everything and take zachs words to heart. I can never get enough of this beautiful music!

[uzSwapped]

Not sure what kind of sub-genre of country this is? BUT I NEED MORE!!!

[ronnie_]

This album man... I've always believed that Hope is a central theme in his writings, but this whole album hit me so hard. He's inspired so many of my writings and my poetry. This one makes me appreciate the red lights, the stops, the knees taken, the punches thrown and gut checks.
How lucky are we?

[lsmit]

Assembling my daughter’s nursery and this song comes out of nowhere. Overwhelming. Thank you

[alinamarusic]

Turning 28 tomorrow . Bawling my eyes right now.
I’m not that lucky and haven’t met anyone yet . Lonely and sad . But hey, at least I have the privilege to be a ZB fan

[kelseykuhn]

Zach, I don't think you understand the impact your music has on people. It's so beautiful to see.

[stormiemaness]

this song was my friends favorite. I didn't realize I lost him until it was too late. now I don't know if I can stop loving him.

[maripatmcglynn]

Took 34 years (on July 2 this year) to finally feel loved on my birthday. It was a hell of a week to feel it finally. What a time to hear this 💜🩵

[Carterisntgood]

LETSSS GOOO HAPPY 4TH EVERYBODY !!!! AMAZING SONG ❤️❤️

[PRODVE]

i will work on a song with Zach Bryan one day, speaking it into existence 🙏🏼

[katelynn]

Thank you for turning to the music career. I've listened to morgan wallen, megan moroney, mason ramsey exc... but nothing can cure my heart sick like you. Your the only one who can make songs that hit home this hard. Thank you zach❤

[hoevmec]

I can't afford to go to the concert but I listen everyday

[andonlyKendall]

My dad died and I went to school the day after and this music was playing and I just broke down
