Avett Brothers, The - Sanguine Lyrics
Make me sanguine
Help me genuinely
Kill the doubt that strangles my self-worth
Paint the picture that I swore I heard
Ghost that comes between
I will keep my wits about myself
Disregard directions sent from hell
When it brings the gleam
Longer lasting than me
Oh my love but we are bound to die
My heart is broke but you won't hear me cry
Oh my love but we are bound to die
My heart is broke but you won't see me

Avett Brothers, The Sanguine Comments
Always come back to this
I miss you babe.... I’ll always love you.
Love ♡♡♡♡
I’d like to tell one person, make me sanguine.
I could listen to this version all day long.
I love you both.
I watch it every day!
wow. just wow.
I honestly just want to punch anyone that dislikes these songs
Love Seth’s apparently ad lib’d acoustic leads. They add even more to the beautifully choreographed lyrics and song chords
The harmony, your voices, the nature sound... I can’t describe how much this video touched my heart. I’m in heaven now ❤️
Thank you Avett Brothers. 💚💚💚💚💜
Perfection. If the music wasn't great enough, the setting , with the sunlight in the trees, could not be more perfect
"my heart is broke but you wont see me cry"
i'm crying now
I love this video, it's so ethereal. There is no one like The Avetts..
Tiffany...I agree. There is no one like them. They are first in my heart and have replaced other musicians since I found them. Sincerity, honesty, humility, and love can all be felt in their most beautiful music and poetry. Even though now with a movie made of their music and life they stay humble and true to their roots. I couldn't love them more. They are one of a kind.
It is amazing how the studio and non-studio versions are so good
If I was a girl I would say Seth's backup vocals on this song are dreamy, but I'm a man so I'll just say they're awesome.
spiritless and mean
in tears; every single time
How have I missed this song? So glad I finally found it!
It's so beautiful. I can't even.
😍 love this song
This is such a happy place
Kill the doubt that strangles my self worth.
... and disregard directions sent from hell ...
Could this song be any more powerful ? And with relatively few words. This one and Through My Prayers slay me. Lyrically, these two are brilliant. Their passion is raw and real, their generosity so obvious to all who listen to them and love them ! #SayLove <3 Namaste <3
It's a prayer.
Amen♡
Country is... this.
Love this song, but the video makes me think of Supernatural. They're almost like as if Sam and Dean put together a band, "The Winchester Brothers" lol.
If men could regard the events if their own lives with more open minds, they would frequently discover that they did not really desire the things they failed to obtain.
Meeeoooowww
Oh wow! Being a huge Avett Brothers fan and guitar player of their tunes for several years, I'm pretty excited to hear how they changed the notes on the reoccurring slide riff here. I love that they still do these raw straight recordings after being big signed musicians. Whether it's more stripped down of newer songs that receive the fuller produced treatment with drums and other added instruments or rehashing older tunes like this here, they still exude the true heart of their talent.
They are always true to their art
So fuking beautiful!
Sanguine (adj.): optimistic; confident
I cannot even count how many times this song -- abd specifically *this* recording of it -- has assisted me in "keeping my wits about myself, disregarding directions sent from Hell" ... No, this isn't just music to me, it is life ...
Found myself here again. They seldom play it live, do they?
+Bartholomew Jones I saw them play it on Oct 1 in Lexington, KY.
+Zack Estes I am hoping to hear them perform this one live ! Be still my heart ! <3 Say Love <3
goosebumps...
I swear Seth is seeing angels in this one
They are certainly close to god.
+Pam Raymond ... I have said of them since I first heard them that theirs is a common man's ministry of music and that "when they open their mouths, heaven falls out." I absolutely adore them like I have never any other. And I am a lifetime, big time audiophile.
+Deb Alexander ........amen to that . They are my no. 1, and I love all kinds of music. I never miss them when they play nearby and have traveled a couple of times to see them too. LOVE their music and their message
Possibly the most beautiful song I've ever heard
It's all of them dude
Right ? Every time I even think about saying "This is my favorite Avett song ...," another pops into my head. It is like choosing a favorite child. Speaking of which, I love the video for Murder in the City when Scott sings "I wonder which brother is better/Which one our parents loved the most/I sure did get in lots of trouble/They seemed to let the other go/A tear fell from my father's eye/I wondered what my dad would say/He said, "I love you and I'm proud of you both,/In so many different ways" <-- the smiles both brothers are wearing as they sing this verse are priceless. :) You can see how genuine the love and respect they have for one another and their family is when they sing MITC and also, Salvation Song. <3
I have liked everything I've heard from these guys (10,000 words, I and love and you, Ballad of love and hate) but I never heard this until today. It's my new favorite song <3
What a beautiful arrangement...Playing...singing. Wonderful.
"Kill the doubt that strangles my self worth. Paint the picture that I swear I heard." ~ Simply beautiful!
Beautiful
Just lovely
Just love this band @LiquidUniverse Mark Hope you enjoy
Wow, what a great song! I did enjoy :) Thanks, my friend :)
@LiquidUniverse Mark Certainly yes.
This will always be a favorite. The lyrics and harmony are gorgeous. The wind rustling through the trees makes this perfect.
This might be the greatest made for youtube video ever...I can't stop watching.
It makes me so calm
MERCY!! HEAVEN-SENT!!
Not my favorite song by them. But they nail it! Still my favorite group! LOVE the Avetts!
I can't love this enough.
the final lyrics, the harmony. chills.
Julia Thiemonge , harming chills - YES!
This video is amazing in its own right. But I love it even more because you really get to hear the growth in their abilities since they recorded this originally. Now, I love the original, but Seth's solo here is way better and their harmonies are much tighter in this video.
OHHHH how I'd love to have these brothers sing to me in the woods! 💋 The harmony between them is glorious! LOVE! ❤ LOVE!
The leaves....I love to close my eyes and listen to this song.
These brothers compliment each other so well. In every way. Even in Seth's little solo. Not overbearing, but not under spoken. They harmonize at the perfect points. I'd love to make music with someone I was this close to.
I see you on like every Avett Brothers post and you always make really good points man
+Austin Paul While I've never had the talent for composing that they do, I've had the honor of playing and singing with people that I gel with that well. I miss it. It's medicine for the soul to express, but not often that I can say moreso to sit back and listen, like with these guys. My life would be emptier without them now!
Next Gen. Illusions you can only do it with a sibling. No one can harmonize like that otherwise. It's science and it's fascinating.
Shannon Hutcheson
got an article you read that in? I'm really intrigued about this
phil_osopher33 I originally heard if on NPR on a fresh air about Linda Ronstadt. You might can find it there also
I need to pay The Avett brothers to write a song about how their songs make me feel. I think they're the only ones who could put them into words.
I wish I could favorite this comment somehow.
Amazing how a perfect song like this has 110,000 views, while gaga, bieber and company have tens of millions. Their loss, I guess.
Art is subjective. And judging taste in art is ridiculous and petty.
+Lowell Zapata no the masses only get what they get
reints74 I'm so sick of comments about pop artists. Stop being pretentious. I love the Avett Brothers, but no one cares
reints74 + They know not what good music is.
I am just so grateful to be here
It's so beautiful, i can't tell you...
perfect
I love the Avette Brothers and I love Crackerfarm! Amazing !
So mellow. love the wind in the background too
Just love this song!! So beautiful!
perfect
Love this Avett Bros, brings me back to good old folk music or just great music the Cat Stevens, Joan Beaz, ect.., sang in the 70's! Best era ever baby;)
Agreed. It's THAT good.
The most perfect song.
My "go to sleep"- song almost every night.... on replay :)
Love, Love, LOVE!
So, 11 people have no soul?
Just too good. What can you even say about this? Perfect.
Probably my all time favorite from these brothers. Damn it's so good.
Jim Skitten + Its one of their best ones for sure.
Yea, I am in heaven.
I think I just went to heaven
hahahahahahha
I am so in love with them.
very good
so damn smooth...is what comes to mind
Love this!
Beautiful. I'm from Alaska and didn't even recognize it. Missing the majestic mountains.
May you live to be a hundred and twenty at least, fit as fiddles both, and be able to sing to us the songs inside your beautiful souls ! Oh my God, you open your mouths and I swear, Heaven falls out !
Amazing
One of the most beautiful songs ever written, in my opinion. This is a gem.
i luv u guys
I was at that show too - National Treasures.
Just saw these guys at Meadowbrook in Live Free Or Die - New Hampshire June 8th Exp013!!! The Greatest Band since Uncle Tupelo!!!
I never get tired of you guys! See you in Austin soon!
lol the Carolina outback.
I'm not sure I've heard a more harmonious presentation than this in recent memory. It just doesn't get old. Wonderful.

The only word I can think of for the way the guitar sounds is B-E-A-utiful
I wish I had your job. I absolutely love these boys music.
