My husband has a list of songs to be played at his funeral. He simply calls it "The List". Songs like "When I get to where I'm going" and "Simple Man" and others. Well Mr Jinks, you've done something very few have done. My husband just walked into the room and simply said, "Add that to the list" with tears in his eyes. Then he turned and walked away. I'm not sure what it is that you have, but he sure does, and with this song, you have made the list. Thank you for touching my husbands heart so deeply.

The best.

I can't even begin to tell you how much this mans music means to me. Such a good song.

As a tool and die maker from Pennsylvania, every machine is grey, everyday the skies are grey, and dealing with ulner and radial tunnel syndrome, this song shook me to the core.

i travel building powerlines, chasing storms to help people get power back on and i have lost a wife, my home, dont have much but my son that i get a picture of now and then.. this song is amazing and says whats in my head every damn day. is the blood worth the pain..

Without the blood do we even have the pain? From your little write up you sound like a guy that bleeds every day, but the pain is how you know you a good person. Some people can just say "Meh" and shrug off everything you just explained... never lose a drop of blood or even register pain, me being one of those people. I can't feel emotion anymore. So to read what you wrote touched me... I do think you are a strong person. I remember emotion... I almost feel it when I read stuff like that. My heart goes out to you, not in the sense of feeling sorry but I guess you are a person like Cody portrays in this song... a man with a Life, A man with Struggle... A story. I miss being a person that feels. I'm a shell and borderline monster... I lost my kids to hateful women. I played my part I won't deny that, but I am a good father... I never would hurt ot do wrong by my boys. But between the corrupt "Mother Supporting" court system and two greedy bitches that see those boys as a Paycheck ... $20k in court and lawyer fees in the last few years and still deal with refusal of Visitation... Hard to take my word for it I know but my battle has torn me into so many numb pieces that I don't even feel human anymore... so... I envy your ability to stay functional and emotional. I miss it. I had a catastrophic emotional shut down. Keep your head up, you sound like a strong man.

Now this is music. This is just absolutely beautiful. Cody Jinks, you have quickly become my favorite singer of all time. Rah!

I cry Everytime I hear this song because this is life not everything is joy and happiness like people put it it's hard times and learning how to make it work thanks Mr. Jinks for this song

Texas country tells the truth of lifes every day struggles and pain

When the canvas is no longer blank And the colors have all turned grey When the desert that you're in gets too cold for you to stay When it's hard to tell the night from the day When your hands have lost the love for the trade And the reasons for work just ain't the same When you put down the money is the blood worth all the pain When you can't see the sunshine for the rain Livin' ain't a promise Livin' ain't a right And no one here is getting out alive So pick up all your pieces Cast the doubt away Rediscover the color in the grey Rediscover all the color in the grey Livin' ain't a promise Livin' ain't a right No one here is gettin' out alive So pick up all your pieces Cast the doubt away Rediscover the color in the grey Rediscover all the color in the grey

I lost a love, and his music helped to pull me back from the brink. Not a wife or lover, but the irreplaceable love of a child, and without his music, the spiral was inevitable. This is the music that can touch you, and see you through.

I hope that you are still in the battle for life. My story is similar, I was diagnosed and had surgery and the removal of one of my kidneys. Then 9 years and 363 days later I get a call from the doctor who tells that not only is my cancer back but it's stage 4. Since that day I've endured 2 heart surgeries one of which was what was called a debranching of the heart, look that one up and you'll get an idea of the road I'm on. However I did have to make changes in my life, one of those was I got closer to my lord and savior and that is the reason that I am able to write this message to you today. I have now been fighting against my cancer ( metastatic renal cell carcinoma) for 6 years and this was after I was told that I would be dead in 2 years. Since that dreadful day I have seen the birth of my 6th grandchild, seen another granddaughter graduate high school, seen 1 daughter receive her master's degree and my youngest daughter receive her bachelor's degree. My loving wife and I will celebrate our 40th anniversary this October. And I have the privilege of marrying one of my good old buddies this September. So my message is to turn your medical problems over to the lord, but take a active participation in your treatments read everything about the plans the medicine that will be used. I will put in my prayers and I hope that you don't give up.

Everyone I've turned on to Cody has loved it. I got 4 CD's and love them.

This song is a true gem

What a WELL WROTE song! Been listening to your stuff for years, you sir, have NEVER disappointed. With respect, thank you

Reminds me of my Dad. He passed away suddenly July 2019. I miss him

These lyrics amaze me I have writers envy. So meaningful not to mention his guitar playin. Keep on keepin on Cody.

When you can't see the sunshine for the rain.

I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and Fibromyalgia 4 years ago. I listen to this song constantly, and especially when I go in for medication infusions. I want this played at my funeral. ❤️❤️

It turned all grey for me when my father died. It’s never been the same since

The message of this song is why I come back. More tunes nowadays need a message. Brainless zombie music in the mainstream. Just imagine for a second what out world would look like if people put tunes like this in their heads instead of "my anaconda don't..."
