QRCODE

Tags: in walls 1, 2, 4 and 6 after counts 16, 32, 40 and 48.
Tag: RF heel stomp x 2 (2 counts)
Restart: in wall 3 after counts 39& in section 5.
You can hear the Tags and Restart clearly in the music.

There are No Tags in the refrains when a woman, Rachel Proctor, sings together with Blake and you can hear the music getting stronger in the beat.
It’s very important for you to listen to the rhythm in this song, which changes slightly sometimes, but it’s easy to follow. Just enjoy the rhythm and listen to the story in the song. Then you will understand the dance. This is indeed true country roots and one of Blake’s greatest hits still popular today! The music video is very entertaining to look at as well and in my dance demo video you will clearly see how it’s done. Have Fun dancing it!
