Story Behind the Song
Save a Chair Beside Them
Maybe the coffee is on.
Maybe somebody is dealing the cards.
Maybe they look toward an empty chair now and then, knowing exactly who it is being saved for.
From Mack’s chorus and musical idea grew Save a Chair Beside Them, an old-country song about carrying a lifetime of memories, laying the burden down, and someday finding your way home to your people.
For all the old souls we remember — and for the chairs we hope are waiting beside them.
