[G] I'm honored to be standing here on this stage, on the small piece of wood that is from the Ryman Auditorium.
You know, it's real funny that I've been waiting on this for 25 years.
It's an honor and a thrill to me.
And you know, this small piece of wood has probably heard more sad songs than I'll ever be able to sing all the rest of my life.
But if y'all will let me, I'd like to do one more song, just for it, that has a lot to do with sadness and country music,
and what country music is all about.
It's a song about a man and a woman who just can't seem to talk to each other anymore.
And you know, the worst thing about it is, is that there's kids involved.
