Hells ya If I won the lotto on my 10 thousand acre ranch in Montana Play all night dude as long as there was whisky I am sure hes in!!! hey ya can only dream till I win the lotto!!
I am 63 years old and it seems every time I turn around I am attending a funeral of a friend or family member that left this earth all too soon. I guess that sort thing is to be expected when you get to be my age. Life is short it seems. But I do know Heaven is forever.
I know exactly what you mean. I'm only 40 and I've buried all of my longtime friends except for one and he and I both share the honorary title of uncle to the children they've left behind. Between baseball games, gymnastics practice and band recitals neither of us have hardly any time to spare these days but I wouldn't have it any other way.
Just lost my father a 82nd airborne Grenada vet this morning he lost his battle to lung cancer....hardest thing ive ever been thru in my life at only 27yrs old. I listened to this song after and bald like a baby beside his body. I love you dad. Charles steven Westover
I lost my Dad this past March. Right before I turned 30. I feel you, too young for this. I just know they are resting in heaven! Prayers for you and your family!
This song kills me,(😢😢)it always reminds me of my Grandpa,he passed 7 yrs ago due to health complications.That man taught me so much ,I would work with him in the summer as a teen.He taught me a trade( construction),and he taught me how to be a man.He taught me how to enjoy simple things like gardening, going for along drive on old back roads.Or just drinking a ice cold beer after working all day in the hot sun,he would say "If you work like a grown man then you should be allowed to drink like one too"He taught me self respect,honesty,and so much about life .He was a great friend ,and a awesome down to earth man.He wasnt my blood grandpa(I have never meet my blood one),and he didnt have to love me like he did ,BUT, he did!!Best grandfather a boy could ever have.I love and miss you Pappa Wes,I know your with God and Jesus enjoying what you deserve .
Did we have the same grandpa?? I played this on repeat after my grandpa passed. He was my best friend. We were inseparable. Thank you for this comment 💔💙
My grandpa was my hero and I'm 71 but I would drive the tractor while he fed the hay baler. Loved that man to pieces but he died at 83 while I was in the hospital. Can't help but think grief may have caused his stroke that killed him. He learned I would never walk again. Love you my sweet Dad. Hope to see you in heaven.
In 1964, 2 boys from Bettendorf Iowa met down at the Mississippi River. They made themselves a rope swing under the span of the I-74 Bridge. Who would know that friendship would last for over 53 years. On Saturday, Oct 21 my husband's childhood friend was cleaning his gutters and fell off his roof. He died instantly. We just saw Chris on Oct. 5 at the Tax Slayer Center in Moline, IL. Ironically, the Slayer is directly across the river from where the old rope swing used to be. At the time, my husband could not relate to this song... he sure can now.
His version. was played at my Sister's funeral. she passed away this past mothers day. she was the one that introduced his music, & that awesome voice to me.
@Chris Stapleton your speech accent isn't very Kentucky or Tennessee. LOL. But that's ok..your music makes up for it. Before I say anything about where I'm watching from and if you remember me. Tell me a memory you have.
My older brother passed away in his sleep last night and it is by far one of the most saddest days of my life right now. I will always miss and love you brother! R.I.P Uriah love u brother.
3-18-19 makes 1585 days and it's not one damn bit easier. I've cried at least once a day since 11-14-14. I never thought it possible to miss someone like this. Mark, brother I see you every day in my little girl, oh I wish she'd know you. She acts just like you. I know you are looking over her. I'm no longer mad at you or God, I'm trying to be thankful for the time I had with you instead of loathing the time without you. Till I see you again I'll be on peir. Love you man. Rest easy brother.
Losing husband in 94 , Left raising our three kids alone was hardest thing I thought id ever encounter .. then 2011 I lost my daughter ... She now is buried nearest him ... This song says so much for me .. I am not a drinker at All ..but they liked beer ..so each year I go to this place I bring they're favorite beer and I drink a beer !! Then place a rose in can an PLAY this song for them ... It's tuffer than most will ever know .. but this song heals as the can slowly drifts down the river ...
I’m so sorry for your loss. I couldn’t imagine losing a child, but I understand loss. I lost both my grandparents a couple of years ago within two days of each other from COVID My grandma raised me for the first ten years of my life and was my best friend and one of, if not the only person who got through to me when I was doing things I shouldn’t have been doing for the following fifteen years. She had such a light about her, could brighten a room with her laughter and bring out the best in people. She found my grandfather after life had taken them separate ways for decades (they were friends in their youth and both had marriages that went south) and they fell in love and got married and lived a very happy 16 years together. He became a part of our family and the rest is history. They were both beautiful people and I miss them dearly. Sometimes when I have a particularly rough day, I’ll go back and listen so some of the voicemails they left me since it’s the closest thing I can get to hearing their actual voices. I’m sorry, I’m rambling, but I guess I’m saying is I don’t know you, your son, or your stories in life, but I’d like to think even though we all make mistakes, some with dire consequences, our mistakes don’t define who we are as people unless we continue to make them. Our experiences make us grow and change sometimes for better, sometimes for worse, but we can’t hang onto regret and ‘what could’ve been’. We can only control who we are now and there’s a small part of me, when I’m not making mistakes (because I’m human) that carries the lessons my grandparents taught me in my day to day life, like a voice in my whispering in my ear, and that a part of them, as cheesy as it sounds, continues to live on in me. I can only hope that your son’s spirit lives on in you in a similar way. I wish you the best and once again, I’m incredibly sorry for your loss. No one should have to go through what you’re going through.
My sister passed away June 26, 2012. She thought her light was not bright enough. I miss her more then life itself some days. She was so beautiful, crazy and young. She didn't know that she is and was so special to us all. This one is for you Patricia Lee. See you on this side or the other.
When I got the news today I didn't know what to say. So I just hung up the phone. I took a walk to clear my head, This is where the walking lead Can't believe you're really gone Don't feel like going home So I'm gonna sit right here On the edge of this pier Watch the sunset disappear And drink a beer Funny how the good ones go Too soon, but the good lord knows The reasons why i guess Sometimes the greater plan is kinda hard to understand Right now it don't make sense I can't make it all make sense So I'm gonna sit right here On the edge of this pier Watch the sunset disappear And drink a beer So long my friend, until we meet again I'll remember you And all the times we used to Sit right here on the edge of this pier Watch the sunset disappear And drink a beer Drink a beer, drink a beer
This song was played at my sisters funeral and I had never heard it before and no1 couldn't have made a better song to fit for passing... she was only 55...and I miss her so much... im 35 and she was like a mother 2 me ours passed away 2005...I was 20 she was 40....I miss them both so damn much
Lost one of my closest friends in november, he took his own life. I miss him every day. He was 41. 🍻 rest easy pal. I'm sorry you're gone brother. For anyone out there... please don't select a permanent solution to temporary problems.
I lost my pup a few days ago and heard this song(driving to work yesterday) how meaningful and accurate the words are.. I had to pull over and I just broke down.. miss you Packer.
My father passed away 9-11-2018. When i listen to this song and I am drinking a beer looking into the sky. I feel him. Hes my best friend. I have two sons. I just hope they look at me the way I look at my father. I’ll see you when I see you dad. Save me a tee time.
Lost my baby brother 1 1/2 years ago at 37 yrs of age. Taken way too early as he left behind a wife and 2 little girls. I play acoustic and this is my remembrance song in his honour! Thanks to Luke and Chris for this fantastic song!
Lost a friend of mine and my older sister’s. His birthday is coming up soon and I can’t even imagine what kind of hell she’ll go through knowing her baby brother won’t be there..he was taken away way too soon, only 15. He died last year, August 11th.
22 years ago when l lost Lisa, I'd sit on the pier and drink one for her, now it's my turn, l hope Chris or some one drinks one for me. thank you Chris
A friend of mine moved on yesterday. 18 years old, freak accident. Loved this song before, but hoped I would never have a friend to sing it about. Rest easy Brandon, thanks for the fun❤️
"Drink a Beer" is a song written by Jim Beavers and Chris Stapleton and recorded by American country music artist Luke Bryan. It was released in November 2013 as the third single from his fourth studio album, Crash My Party, and became his seventh number one on the Billboard Country Airplay chart in February 2014. Bryan has described "Drink a Beer" as "the coolest sad song ever" and notes he connects with the story after having lost both of his siblings.
I lost three friends that I loved like brothers I was raised with them we did everything together . I ended up going down a bad road with drugs and I ended up going to rehab for a year and within months of each other my brothers passed away from over doses and suicide .. chris sings this song like no other and I break down every time I listen to it .. I know my brothers are in a better place and Chris reassures me of that Everytime .. god bless anyone whose lost a loved one
@@sebastienmccarthy1483 spend so much time with him buddy, all the time you could. You'll learn a lot from him. I wish to yours a long and healthy life and future.
i prefer rock music of all kinds over any other music ESPECIALLY COUNTRY and this song put me to tears. its definitely on my playlist. good job chris 🖒🏻
Got to wake up for work in 4 hours... Sometimes you just need to sacrifice sleep for some spiritual enrichment. Tomorrow is gonna be a rough one... sixer is looking a little light right now.
I lost my 19 year old son on 3/20/2014. He was the baby of 4. Three older sisters and then him. Never knew Chris wrote this song until a couple months ago. Always heard the Luke Bryan version. That is great too. Don't cut yourself short Chris. Me and my dad will see you and Hank at DTE (Pine Knob). Please play this tune!! You got it for sure brother!!
I have two boys of my own, and I can't even start to imagine your loss. I'm not much of a drinking man, but next time I drink a beer, I'll have one for you and your baby boy. Big hug from Mexico my brother.
+Jorge Villalobos, Thank you. Still in courts trying to prosecute the guy who killed him. it's been 2 1/2 years. Will be nice to finally see this guy behind bars for life. Thanks again for the kind words.
I woke up this morning to find out that one of my childhood friends passed away in a car crash last night. Thanks Chris for this amazing song. Rest in peace Austin "Noodle" Newell.
Laid a real close friend to rest back in April last year played this song for him the night of his burial at his grave...FLY HIGH MY BROTHER FROM ANOTHER MOTHER! R. I. P Cole Grimm😞
Lost my older brother yesterday...wasn't there to say good bye...now its hard to sleep. have to work today but this lingers on my mind...only memories remain...keep my family in prayers...always love you Mitch...
I lost my cousin to cancer one week ago. He was only 42, and he was like a brother to me. He loved country music, and in trying to find music for his funeral I stumbled across this song in his hard drive. Apparently, he had ripped this version of the song from this video. Rest in peace, Kosit, I'll see you again someday.
this song wether sung by Luke or Chris makes me remember my dad...he was such a light in my life and when we lost him in 2011 it completely changed me. I miss him every single day but this song lets me remember that i will see him again.
Sitting by Chris Stapleton would be a dream for me bc he is an amazing country singer ever and sitting by him by a bonfire or campfire would be a dream come true
I was listening to you tube and came across Chris and have literally play it over and over and over again. Amazing how his music I have never heard before speaks to my heart like never before, chills if you know what I mean and a lot of tears. Completely identify with his music
No joke.hes music and voice,soul altogether,still whereever and whatever your doing..your now càughr up in tapping into your inner self.beautifull beautiful beautiful!!!!!!

Has anyone noticed that Chris sings every song better than other artists? He’s a true genius
Well, he wrote this song.
@@johntherevelator2020 ah didn’t know that
@@mrphill8028 I didn't either, until I read the comments a while back, l.o.l.
fuk yeah!!!
It's also because he doesn't use autotune. He's actually good enough to be where he is. Most of the others aren't.
For all you "Country Fans" Chris actually wrote this song
I always thought it was Luke Bryan lol
no shit..
I don't think Luke Bryan has ever written a song....
Jason S who's wrong?
not u Aaron, some of the replies from your post. I know Chris wrote this
He could sing happy birthday and still make a grown man cry.

Damn ya'll Im 45, & this ain't nothing to look forward to.... :(
I'm 56 and I just lost my second sister. Death is apart of life. I have a big family and I'm thankful for everyone of them. Jesus is coming!
Chris Stapleton answers George Jones question Who's going to fill their Shoes. He's doing it
Damn right! Tyler Childers too
Dont forget people like Sturgill Simpson that keep the old sound of country alive.
And even luke combs

He’s great but idk about that

Hey man…. My dad died in 2018 and his best friend played an acoustic guitar and sang this song at his funeral. It makes me cry every time I hear it
I played this song for my best friend at his wake. He requested it in his will. Thank you Chris for writing such a beautiful song.
My mom & I sat on a pier and sang sitin on the dock of the bay 1 week before she stepped into heaven. This song ! Oh my! Enough said.

Man thats tough
Roof anchor + fall protection gear = life saved
wade wilson not the time or the place
And now theyre building this new bridge and tearing down the old
In a world where we are running out of good story tellers chris stapleton has emerged to save us all from the garbage out today
This is my humble opinion only but he is the picture of pure country music, this man should be beyond superstar status. He is true country
ABSOLUTELY!!
This opinion is actually FACT… sorry to break it to you friend…
His version. was played at my Sister's funeral. she passed away this past mothers day. she was the one that introduced his music, & that awesome voice to me.
The name of this song takes me back to a unforgettable time in my life.

Best Southern voice, writer, and performer in 50 years.

I didn't know what to say.
So I just hung up the phone.
I took a walk to clear my head,
This is where the walking lead
Can't believe you're really gone
Don't feel like going home
So I'm gonna sit right here
On the edge of this pier
Watch the sunset disappear
And drink a beer
Funny how the good ones go
Too soon, but the good lord knows
The reasons why i guess
Sometimes the greater plan is kinda hard to understand
Right now it don't make sense
I can't make it all make sense
So I'm gonna sit right here
On the edge of this pier
Watch the sunset disappear
And drink a beer
So long my friend, until we meet again
I'll remember you
And all the times we used to
Sit right here on the edge of this pier
Watch the sunset disappear
And drink a beer
Drink a beer, drink a beer
"The reasons why, I guess"

Praying for you🙏🏼 keep your head up
@@garretthuffman That's the only thing we can do for him right now. Thank you !
Sorry for you loss, man. Don’t know what I would do if I lost my grandpa.
@@sebastienmccarthy1483 spend so much time with him buddy, all the time you could. You'll learn a lot from him. I wish to yours a long and healthy life and future.
Jonas Tabti Thanks, man. That’s much appreciated
Don't disrespect other artists in the name of Chris Stapleton. He has a large respect for all artists
meow bi tch zcfyfFdza Can a
Don't close your eyes
And calling Luke Bryant an artist is hilarious
Chris is an artist but Luke is a puppet
Olivia Patrick wish I could like this comment more than once

I Lost My Best Friend Back in 2010 and it Still Hurts Every God Damn day, Friends for Over 22 years, Sadly He took his own life R.I.P J.J.I
Perfect song for the early passing of my best friend, and the best friend of many, George Michael Brooks. Miss you my friend! Cheers!
From the depth of his lyrics there is a psychic pain that most will never know.
Got to wake up for work in 4 hours... Sometimes you just need to sacrifice sleep for some spiritual enrichment.
Tomorrow is gonna be a rough one... sixer is looking a little light right now.
Placebo wow...im down to 6 hours sleep listening to this song and a couple others over again...Broken Halos
Is it bad I thought you were talking about a six pack?
@@sebastienmccarthy1483 who wants a 6 pack when you got a 24 pack
hope work wasn't too bad that day! just discovered this great song
This is the most beautiful song about drinking beer I’ve ever heard.
Those that dislike this song, have never had their heart ripped out from a death of a loved one....this song makes it almost bareable
Dedicating this song to my mom who lost her battle with cancer. I love you mom, rest in peace.
Always amazes me to hear Chris sing a song he wrote, and do it better than who he wrote it for
One of the few COUNTRY artists for my generation. Thanks Chris!! Keep doing what your doing!!
jvfd1730 he’s not really country. Maybe rock/americana, but not country. Sturgill has more country.
Dexter Rutecki Chris Stapleton is as country as it gets.
551 people have never lost a good friend. This one tugs on the heart strings.
He's awesome
I lost my 19 year old son on 3/20/2014. He was the baby of 4. Three older sisters and then him. Never knew Chris wrote this song until a couple months ago. Always heard the Luke Bryan version. That is great too. Don't cut yourself short Chris. Me and my dad will see you and Hank at DTE (Pine Knob). Please play this tune!! You got it for sure brother!!
Sorry countryman, really.!!!
Thank you my friend!!
I have two boys of my own, and I can't even start to imagine your loss. I'm not much of a drinking man, but next time I drink a beer, I'll have one for you and your baby boy. Big hug from Mexico my brother.
+Jorge Villalobos, Thank you. Still in courts trying to prosecute the guy who killed him. it's been 2 1/2 years. Will be nice to finally see this guy behind bars for life. Thanks again for the kind words.
Sorry to hear about that. I am a 19 year old myself and I could never imagine how my parents would feel
I listened to this song on my way home and hit me in the heart and was trying to keep myself together lol
Hard to believe 1.4k people disliked this song. We have that many people with brain damage listening to RUclips videos?
I woke up this morning to find out that one of my childhood friends passed away in a car crash last night. Thanks Chris for this amazing song. Rest in peace Austin "Noodle" Newell.
Laid a real close friend to rest back in April last year played this song for him the night of his burial at his grave...FLY HIGH MY BROTHER FROM ANOTHER MOTHER! R. I. P Cole Grimm😞
Never heard of this guy! He is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lost a good friend yesterday 💔 Having this one for you Patrick. 1989-2021
Lost my older brother yesterday...wasn't there to say good bye...now its hard to sleep. have to work today but this lingers on my mind...only memories remain...keep my family in prayers...always love you Mitch...
Lost a best friend 2 days ago to a drunk driver. Only 21 years old. This song is getting me through it. Only Chris's version though
A man that can write some bad-ass songs!
Can I come and drink a beer? Beautiful song🤗♥️
Not only did he write this great song but he also plays the hell out of it to
Beautiful song - I lost my bro about a month ago, this song resonates with me, Chris thank you so much for writhing this song.
Chris Stapleton love your songs. It's been a long time since a blues/country singer I could play over and over your blues reminded me of the greats.
I remember you my friend and all the times we used to drink a beer. Love and miss my bro, RIP James!!
I lost my cousin to cancer one week ago. He was only 42, and he was like a brother to me. He loved country music, and in trying to find music for his funeral I stumbled across this song in his hard drive. Apparently, he had ripped this version of the song from this video. Rest in peace, Kosit, I'll see you again someday.
Missing my boy Brian Douglas Downing 8-5-90/ 10-21-16 and this tune just hits it.....hard.
this song wether sung by Luke or Chris makes me remember my dad...he was such a light in my life and when we lost him in 2011 it completely changed me. I miss him every single day but this song lets me remember that i will see him again.
Jeannie Fairchild it's by chris
The greatest!!
Sitting by Chris Stapleton would be a dream for me bc he is an amazing country singer ever and sitting by him by a bonfire or campfire would be a dream come true
Lost my little brother Joe back in September 2017, this song hits home.
It's hard. Lost my brother 2/12/20 to a brain aneurysm. Loved him so...
R.I.P. Sgt First Class, Nick B. Jones.
