Note From Joe:

This song is about my path out of the darkness of drug addiction and alcoholism. The message is that there is a way out and a new life waiting in recovery that is good. The first step is to ask for help. The included links are a good place to start. I'm doing this because if it helps 1 person - it was worth it. It's by giving back that we receive and I am eternally grateful for my sobriety and my life today.

This song has a special meaning for me. I used to be a fall down drunk and lost everything. One night eight years ago I was home finishing up a pack of 16 oz. tall boys and as I was drinking the last beer I decided that this was the last drink I was going to ever have. I took my last swallow and then said a prayer to God to please help me get sober. All I cared about at that point in my life was to not die a fall down drunk. I have been sober for eight years.

Awesome job Joe. I started drinking when I was 11 yrs old and now I'm 62. I was able to stop with AA and by the grace of God. I drank 60 beers a day and a pint of vodka in the morning to get rid of the shakes so I could drive to the store and get my alcohol for the new day. That's all I lived for. Now I have been sober for 22 years and have 2 boys and a granddaughter. Life is beautiful now. I think your song will help many people. God bless you Joe and thanks for the music for so many years. Keep it coming. Hope to see you in Phoenix soon. I will be going to see the Eagles when they come to Phoenix. Hope you will be with them. One Day At A Time.

Thank you Joe! I was 11 years 10 months sober when this tune was released in Oct 4, 2012 . I almost lost it when he said: "All the friends I used to run with are gone. Lord hadn't plan on livin' this long." I just passed 19 years and this song is my AA anthem.

Only reason Joe is still alive. God reached down and saved him. Same as He did me. He will save you if you seek Him. Yeshua Ha Meshiac.

32 days alcohol free and definitely not looking back. My mum sends me this every week. And I love it. Brilliantly written and performed by the legendary Joe Walsh.

Wow, I had heard this song before but never listened to the lyrics. My husband and I met in recovery eleven years ago. He recently passed away less than a month ago. As I was crying one evening alone in our home, missing him so terribly and feeling hopeless and alone, this song came on the radio. I felt as if he played it for me, to comfort me. He died sober and clean and helped so many live sober and clean. This song makes me smile because without recovery, I would have never met this glorious man and shared 11 wonderful years with him. His name was also Joe. Thank you Joe Walsh for carrying the message. God Bless.

It's nice to see rock stars share their sobriety with others. Awesome song Joe Walsh! I've been sober 39 years and I still take it one day at a time.

If you're out there struggling with addiction, I feel you.
The transition back into sobriety can be brutal, at least it was for me.
Took me ten years of relapses to finally put down the bottle for good. I didn't think I had it in me.
Now 14 years sober, I'm living proof it can be done. If you're struggling, talk to somebody. Support is all around you. Hang in there. I'm praying for you.🙏 love and respect
