Top 10 Saddest Country Songs

Here are the top 10 saddest country songs (in my opinion, of course). See if you agree.

#1 He Stopped Loving Her Today - George Jones

Said to be the saddest you will ever hear.

"He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today"

#2 I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry - Hank Williams

There is a lot of emotion in this song. You can tell it's straight from the heart.

Did you ever see a robin weep
When leaves begin to die
That means hes lost the will to live
Im so lonesome I could cry
powered by Youtube

#3 Whiskey Lullaby - Brad Paisley & Allison Krauss

Warning: Video is hard to watch.

And when we buried him beneath the willow
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby

#4 Concrete Angel - Martina McBride

I wouldn't recommend watching the video unless you actually want to cry.

Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can't rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place where she's loved
Concrete angel

#5 Seven Spanish Angels - Willie Nelson & Ray Charles

Awesome song and well sung by Willie & Ray.

And seven Spanish angels,
Took another angel home.

#6 Who You'd Be Today - Kenny Chesney

It ain't fair you died too young
Like a story that had just begun
The death tore the pages all away
God knows how I miss you
All the hell that I've been through
Just knowing no one could take your place
Sometimes I wonder who you'd be today
powered by Youtube

#7 Remember When - Alan Jackson

Here is a touching song by the great Alan Jackson.

Remember when we said when we turned gray
When the children grow up and move away
We won't be sad, we'll be glad
For all the life we've had
And we'll remember when
powered by Youtube

#8 Tell Me I Was Dreaming - Travis Tritt

I feel like this song doesn't really get mentioned a whole lot. Here it is in case you have forgotten it.

Tell me I was dreaming
That you didn't leave me here to cry
You didn't say you don't love me anymore
And it was just my imagination telling lies
Tell me that you didn't say goodbye
powered by Youtube

#9 Hurt - Johnny Cash

Maybe it's that deep voice...

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
powered by Youtube

#10 The Dance - Garth Brooks

Very moving song from a great performer.

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance
