Whiskey Lullaby

A duet with Alison Krauss, this song is about a man and a woman who were married; he went to war and when he came back she was with another man. He kills himself, drinking himself to death, leaving a note to say that he still loves her. In the next verse the woman is mourning his loss. She thinks it's her fault and kills herself as well, drinking herself to death, holding his picture.

This acoustic ballad was the 2005 CMA Song of the Year.

Alison Krauss also played the viola on the track.
