He has taken the Country Music scene by storm, and if you haven't discovered him already I highly suggest you go check him out. In the meantime, here are 15 lyrics that are bound to take you on an emotional roller coaster.
1. "Tennessee Whiskey"
Found the bottom of the bottle is always dry. But when you poured out your love I didn't waste it, 'cause there's nothing like your love to get me high.

We're not meant to know the answers they belong to the by and by.
3. "Fire Away"
Your love might be my damnation but I'll cry to my grave.
4. "Whiskey & You"
One's the devil, one keeps driving me insane. At times I wonder if they both ain't the same. But ones a liar and one helps to hide me from the pain.
5. "Either Way"
I used to cry and stay up nights. It's been hard. But hearts can only do that for so long...you can go or you can stay. I wanna love you either way.

Livin' hard was easy when I was young and bullet proof.

People call me the Picasso of painting the town.
10. "More of You"
Everything that you do makes me want more of you.
11. "Without Your Love"
And today dealt me another hand of heartache that I'll play.
12. "What are You Listening To?"
Just a sad song playing on the radio station tears still falling hearts still breaking.
13. "Nobody to Blame"
I turned my life into a country song.
14. "Traveler"
My heartbeats rhythm is a lonesome sound, just like the rubber turning on the ground.
15. "Parachute"
If you think you're going down just know I will be around.
