Backstory:
Precious Relative was birthed from the creative minds of cousins, Jake and Matt Thompson, who started jamming together in their grandpa’s basement in their small town of Beeville, Texas. Raised on a diet of classic rock, southern soul, and country blues, the pair forged their musical journey with a shared aspiration to create music that touched people’s hearts. They each brought in their own distinct style – Jake with his gruff vocals and strumming melodies, and Matt with his smooth harmonies and rhythmic beats. Their bond as family and their shared passion for music led to the creation of Precious Relative in 2012. Over the years, the band has gained a cult-like following, playing at barn parties, local pubs, and eventually at large music festivals.

Full Song Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
(G) She was a (C) dream in a (D) denim dress,
(G) Drank her (C) whiskey with a (D) touch of finesse.
(G) I found love (C) on a dusty (D) road,
(G) She was my (C) whiskey (D) lullaby road.

[Chorus]
(G) Whiskey (C) lullaby, (D) hold me tight,
(G) Underneath the (C) Texas moon (D) tonight.
(G) Sip the (C) nectar of (D) yesteryears,
(G) Drown the (C) echoes of (D) lonely tears.

[Verse 2]
(G) She had (C) eyes as deep (D) as the night,
(G) Her laughter (C) was my dawn’s (D) first light.
(G) She was a (C) mystery, a (D) wandering code,
(G) She was my (C) whiskey (D) lullaby road.

[Chorus]
(G) Whiskey (C) lullaby, (D) hold me close,
(G) In your arms, (C) I found my (D) repose.
(G) Let the (C) music play, (D) let the river flow,
(G) You are my (C) whiskey (D) lullaby road.
