Sam Hunt just released a live/acoustic version of his hit “Make You Miss Me.” This song is one of the chart toppers from his debut album “Montevallo.”

Released in 2014, this album and song have been riding around the charts for a year and a half. This is an astonishing achievement from a debut album that is competing with the likes of Luke Bryan and Jason Aldean.

Elias Leight from Billboard mentioned a positive review as they stated “eighty percent of this album could compete easily in the top 40”, and the album “comes from a guy with a hit on the country charts, but has little to identify it as country.” Both of these statements are true even almost two years after its original release. Sam has bared some flack for his influences of pop and R&B in what is climbing the top 40 country charts. However there is a big flux of younger generations buying it as it reflects more with them rather than traditional country.

Either way, this is a nice rendition of the hit, without the studio flare of the record. Have a listen in the video above, and lyrics below:

“You hear a new song, it’s your favorite

Pretty soon you’ll be changing the station

And all your old shoes are looking brand new

They wanna be worn but they never get the chance to

Heavy into everything

Ready for the next thing

Catch a ride for a while then you’re over it

You change your mind on it

Soon as the shine’s gone

Like you always do, but you don’t know it yet but

Woah woah

I ain’t gonna be that easy to leave

Woah woah

Girl I’m gonna make you miss me

Make you wish that you were sleeping in my shirt

Lie about my jacket and tell everyone it’s yours

When your phone rings after midnight and you’re thinking maybe it’s me

Gonna make you miss me

You’re cold and hot

You burn out like a match

Keep a slim knot in the strings you attach

You think it’s easy, but that’s a lie

The only reason that you’re good at goodbye is

Every boy you ever met, was too easy to forget

Well, I ain’t going out like that

Woah woah

I ain’t gonna be that easy to leave

Woah woah

Girl I’m gonna make you miss me

Make you wish that you were sleeping in my shirt

Lie about my jacket and tell everyone it’s yours

When your phone rings after midnight and you’re thinking maybe it’s me

I’m gonna make you miss me (Yeah)

Woah woah

I ain’t gonna be that easy to leave

Woah woah

Girl I’m gonna make you miss me

Writing letters that you’re never gonna mail

Stay up and paint my favourite shade of red on your nails

‘Cause you can’t fall asleep and you’re wishing you were with me

I’m gonna make you miss me

Make you miss me

Make you miss the way my hand fit in your hand

When you’re dialing my number listening to my favourite bands

I’ll say, hey baby you know all you can say

Is come and get me

I’m gonna make you miss me (Miss me)

I’m gonna make you miss me

And oh oh oh

I’m gonna make you miss me”
