In my humble opinion, this is, lyrically, the greatest song ever written.

I think you'll both find that this was first recorded on "A Gentle Evening With Townes Van Zandt", circa 1969

@3:03 Could Townes Van Zandt play a song so emotional that it could even make himself cry?

This sounds like an old man singing about his misgotten youth. But Townes was only 27 years old when this was released, and it had been written and performed before then. I guess he was simply born with an old soul...

It's not even the same progression. It's just a slow folk song in a minor key, that's the only similarity.
