Everybody should love Todd Snider. He is a damn genius

I'll love this song for all time because of lines like these.

"I wish I could show you how you hurt me in a way that wouldn't you too"

"Yeah I'd love to trust ya buddy but you're clearly keeping secrets from me"

solo or with sparse accompaniment.

Had to listen twice it’s so good. That’s the sound and lyrics that are just perfect.
