Iron & Wine - Caught In The Briars Lyrics

Amazing 🤗❤️

Muito obrigado, Sam!

wunderschön 🌹

Ive been his fan for almost ten years and just found that He's coming to South Korea next weekend!!! WOW!! And I CAN'T GO!!!! GOD I swear I won't die till I watch him performing

What a soul 😢

Been listening to Sam for so very long. Absolutely love this man, his talent, disposition and the love he has for his family.

I heard the album version for the first time. This slow version is infinitely more hypnotizing. He's a prophet of our time. Love him.

and all of her naked boys and not even i was true

Back alleys full of rain
And everything shining
As holy as she can be
The trick’s in the timing

Free as a morning bird
Fragile as china
She’s stuck in the weakest heart
Of South Carolina

Where all of the naked boys
Lay down beside her
Sing her the saddest song
All caught in the briars

I never meant to fall
So hard in the doorway
And all the sinners here
Have crosses for Sunday

Kissed at the county fair
Frisked in the city
Which proves as an answered prayer
But ain’t it a pity

Where all of the naked boys
Lay down beside her
Sing her the saddest song
All caught in the briars

to me its fucked that this was almost four years ago....
Time fucks shit up.

one of the great songwriters

that man cleavage though

is this all recorded with that Zoom?

I wish Sam would have released this album as a solo acoustic album.

all his work sounds better when he plays live acoustic

wait a minute-what about this : "he lays in the reins" - calexico & iron and wine... this really takes the cake, imo

"Caught in the Briars" & "Sundown (Back in the Briars)". ;)

Astonishing interpretation.
Pure Talent...

I was not true either

I really like how Ghost on Ghost is more of a concept album of a story rather than just a collection of songs. I also started out absolutely hating it along with Kiss Each Other Clean because they were so radically different than his usual (I know Shepherd's Dog was radical too, but who didn't absolutely fall in love with it?), but I really love them both now. Hell, in five years he'll have moved on to classical and death metal. And I know I'll be buying the albums.

Love Sam Beam's voice! <3 
"She had a way to be kind with words, I had a knife in the back of my car..."
 (from Sundown (Back in the Briars), which he sings in the middle of this video)

There are some good tabs (they're just chords) for this particular arrangement on Ultimate-Guitar

Does anyone know where this live track can be downloaded? 

can anyone tell me the minor sounding chords he plays? like after the c and the g????

Cm Bm Am

This is two songs. 'Caught in the Briars' and 'Sundown.' The second song starts at 2:36

whoever disliked this has no mates

WHY IS THIS SO BEAUTIFUL

does anyone know where i can get the tabs to this song, its a mix between caught in the briars and / sundown.

I went to his concert last night, and he was absolutely incredible. He is such a sweet man and so funny! Easily one of the most talented men I've ever seen perform live.

I hate how many people want his acoustic sound back. Its called growth.

You should release acoustic versions of your albums. Appreciation for both is absolutely necessary.

What a cool dude!

Amazing echo

What? How did I miss this live?

With all due respect, you're extremely beautiful! Now I'm listening to this song staring at your eyes!

Is this set available for download? I love the videos but would love to listen to this at work and basically everywhere I go.

My only problem with Iron and Wine is that I love every single song he has ever had when he plays them acoustic, but I can't stand to listen to his albums. If he would just record acoustic, he would be my favorite artist.

Amazing

I met him out in the parking lot before a show. I'm a huge fan of the EP he did with Calexico, so I asked if he'd be playing any songs from that album, and all he said was, "we'll see." towards the end of the concert that night on stage he said "this song is for my friends in the parking lot" and played A History of Lovers for us. So from that brief encounter I'd say he has a very kind heart :)

Shoutout to South Carolina! SC til i die!

Came here thrue that song that was used in twilight. He's a f*cking awesome genius sensitive man with a magnificent voice. Amen

Thats two songs in one "caught in the briars" and "sundown"

His name is Sam, not Zak.

There's something about him that makes you want to listen... So soothing. I hope to meet him one day.

"She locked the door and the sun went down
In South Carolina with nothing to lose

All of her naked boys
And not even I was true"

Wow. Zak has the voice of an angel...

So Beautiful
