The Avett Brothers-If Its the Beaches-1/23/07-2 camera angle

[HetLevenuiteenDa]

Can´t stop listening to this one, I hope he could love me back again :(

[wuthering72]

From 1:30 on. Scott changes everything I'd thought before this performance.

[Explodingopher]

An absolutely heartbreaking song from an outrageously good set of musicians.

[dicksalad1122]

What a soft, touching, heartfelt tune. All while Seth looks like a Nazi. It's kinda kinky. :)

[aeb23]

I swear if they play this when I see them tomorrow I WILL DIE!

[CLEZDADDY]

Just perfect...

[whartonia]

The silence is amazing!! You don't get that at the shows these days. Wish I could time travel back to '07.

[nickids93]

still breaks my heart even though ive listened to this over and over again. my most favorite band.

[ladywharton]

Sublime

[beatlesfan2788]

eerie how silent the audience is.. the is the definitive live version of this song

[jaywr20]

3 Dislikes? Those three people must not have souls... either that or they're deaf.

[MADASHI12345]

im diggin that beard

[gam44es]

Such power in the lyrics and sang with equal emotion. Makes me ache for the girl I love.

[TheBeargoogoo]

wow theese guys never seiz to amaze me there so original its crazy! i cant beilev this song is on the friday night lights sound track, i listen to it all the time

[sunburnturtles1]

@TheBeargoogoo me too lol i love, thees guys i herd them about a month ago on the friday night lights soundtrack,

[minniesmooth]

this song completes the friday night lights soundrack!!! i looooved this band before, but after hearing them on my fav show... im hooked *sigh*

[nanny999999]

brilliant

[kristinatyson78]

Love this video!!! Cant wait for stagecoach and then House of Blues!!!

[banjopicker88]

loved this, gave me chills

[jpsimmlee]

Why would you want them on a major record label? So that jack offs can sing their songs on American shit Idol? They have their own label and do what they want, hence better records.

[iam46moe]

jps they are on Columbia now which I'm fairly certain is Sony, which is a MAJOR label. And if you heard their latest record, you would know they are still putting out fantastic music. "True" fans want them to get big and stay good, which they've done. They deserve where to be where they are.

[1coopjsn]

Extraordinary. These gentlemen are heading to the stars.

[ouitdee]

You know it was good concert when the crowd isn't making noise while they were playing. Thanks for posting! Going to see Avetts in Minneapolis and Chicago over one long weekend.

[bjlaberdia]

Had I known of them I would have helped them get a major label deal years ago. I have friends in the music business in L.A.

I love them and can't get enough of them.

[TABrmayes]

@bjlaberdia They had plenty of offers for a major record deal but they were holding out for the right situation for them. They aren't money hungry they just want to create beautiful music and do it the way they want to do it. That is why they easily held out on signing with other labels.

[sunshine8nine]

Great Scott! I adore scott avett... and seth avett... and bob crawford... and joe kwan.

:)

[primetime214]

*joe kwon

[JenSakey]

First heard the Avett Brothers on Pandora, and now I can't get enough! Love this song :-)

[katwillny]

They Are Great.. Listen to Old Crow Medicine Show. Great music

[122172639]

such a beautiful song... it's even better with the cello... mmmm. over 10 years listening to them back home and ... they just get better.

[bdsnsc]

What a blessing to see Artitsts so passionate about their work, their lyrics. Love me some Avetts.  Keep it up guys!

[biznum]

Love Seth playing the guitar in the video

[iam46moe]

Seth is almost always on guitar? Do you mean you just enjoy the way he is playing? Scott is the one usually on the banjo.

[hoek11]

does anyone know where there is a tab for this song? I LOVE it

[nitzguy1010]

Capo 5.

C, F, Am

Am, G, F, Em

I think.

[hoek11]

thanks, sounds good.

[chrizass]

this is a cool video i wish i was there.

[justingarman]

This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written.. EVER

[3638954]

Correction....ADuring that guitar solo/bridge deal, they throw in an Am instead of the C

[3638954]

In standard tuning, capo on 4, as opposed to the album version where the capo's n 5. Intro is C Am F. Somewhere it switches to C F C. Just listen, it's easy to figure out.

Around 2:25 its something like C G F G# G... that's almost it anyways

[chrizass]

i figured that out by ear thats cool you helped to figure it out.. i love this song

[hymer316]

Psalm 52:8

But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in God's unfailing love for ever and ever.

May you flourish for the Lords sake and by the power of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ:) From one skateboarder to another (blanks as usual), AMEN

[DinosaurJr169]

fdgd

[biznum]

Love the guitar on this version... sound just so right.

[tnjeffofalltrades]

This is simply beautiful!!!!

[haggle25]

anyone know where i can get tabs for this version of the song on guitar??????????

[kaddy3232]

I have foung a bunch on their band page, not sure if THIS version is on there but its a start

[smartypants8009]

this is such a beautiful song :D

[louartlou]

just incredible---how poetic---the simple things----that what these guys are about--beatifull!

[lhpfish]

I heard this song on independent radio out of Denver NC near Charlotte. Amazing.

[chadboy2008]

Independent radio is where its at.

[sbnewman]

hell yes 165,000 views. i hope the Avett Bros just keep blowing up. bonnaroo, opening for Dave Matthews on tour, jazz fest in new orleans, record deal... just keep blowing up. if the Avetts end up on major mainstream radio for whatever reason one day, even if it's only one song, i'll be ecstatic. good shit.

[BananaBreadMakesMe]

Ha, you're opposite of what most people think. But I definitely agree with you, man. These guys definitely deserve it. I'm stoked to say that I'm seeing these guys for FREE next month, and I am ecstatic.

[sbnewman]

damn. for free?  where at?

[BananaBreadMakesMe]

Grimey's record store in nashville.

[taylera]

Any English Avett fans? I heard 'em on a random late night radio station & ever since they've been THE definitive band in my life...

[dearXhaylie]

this is one of the greatest love songs ever written. end of story. what i would give to be the girl these two amazing brothers sing about.

[gurleygirl1818]

the avett brothers know how to sing a damn good love song.

[lam903]

he totally messed up the lyrics

he forgot one of the best lines

love them though

[nphillips1982]

They sounded perfectly fine to me... no missed lyrics.

Plus it's live. They change lyrics all the time, but in this case... he didn't. True to the studio album.

[Marucci72]

"totally messed up" - overstatement; "perfectly fine" - understatement..He did miss a line, and it was still one of the best thing I've ever heard...and it will be again in 40 seconds or so.

[Risethewake666]

Yeah he did forget a line. "If it's a wish to run away, then I will grant it." A very great line in the song.

[shotgunhomicide]

anyone know the chords for this song?

[ozarkbilly]

Capo 5

(C)Don't say it's over

Cause that's the (Am)worst news I could (F)hear I swear that (C)I will

Do my (Am)best to be here (F)just the way you (C)like it

Even (C)though its hard to (F)hide

Push my (C)feelings all (F)aside

I will (C)rearrange my (F)plans and change for (C)you

[dejzijana]

OMG

i m dieing with this song.

it is outstanding

i m looking forwart that they will be at Seattle soon

[sbnewman]

the fact that I choose to listen to this band when I'm faded, stoned, and drunk says all I could say. No disrespect to the Allman Bros. or Zeppelin, but the Avett Bros. are in the rotation now for sure.

[justinpahc]

def. saw them in Pittsburgh and they played one of the greatest shows I've ever seen them play...I talked to Seth Scott and Joe for about 30 mins. after the show...They played a double encore and it was bad ass...Every song you would want to hear from them they played...

[derekexcelcisor]

I wish I could make it up to pittsburgh this weekend to see them for free at the three rivers fest

[IrishLilly518]

Every time i hear this song my soul goes to some peaceful place . . . I LOVE IT ! BEAUTIFUL SONG

[jonnyboybrick]

[sbnewman]
