Biography

American guitarist and vocalist (born June 20, 1967 in Rutland, Vermont). Throughout his 30+ year career, Dan Tyminski has left his mark in every corner of modern music. Tyminski’s voice famously accompanies George Clooney's performance of the Stanley Brother's Classic song, "I'm A Man of Constant Sorrow," in the film, O Brother, Where Art Thou. His vocal collaboration with Swedish DJ Avicii on the song “Hey, Brother” was a global smash, having been streamed over 1 billion times to date. Dan has contributed guitar and/or harmony to projects by Martina McBride, Reba McEntire, Brad Paisley, Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, Kenny Chesney, LeAnn Rimes, Aaron Lewis and Rob Thomas, to name a few. In addition to his highly successful solo career, Dan Tyminski has played guitar and mandolin for Alison Krauss and Union Station since 1994. His unmatched instrumental skills and burnished, soulful tenor voice have been key components of the band. Dan has been honored with 14 Grammy Awards from 18 nominations, was named Male Vocalist of the Year by the International Bluegrass Music Association four times and was recognized as 2004’s Male Vocalist of the Year by the Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass Music in America. Dan will be on tour with his bluegrass band throughout the coming months and will be releasing a new bluegrass album in early 2020.

LYRICS

Every day is a gamble if we gonna make it through When you live on the side of the mountain, and the babies all need food I was the youngest one among us, I got sick and would not eat Daddy prayed accept his fate, but Mommy would not heed. (Chorus) Carry me across the mountain, before it is too late Heal my broken my body, death not be my fate Carry me across the mountain, don't give up on me I am but a helpless child, whose life depends on thee. Daddy warned against it, said you may not make it through Momma wrapped me in her arms, crying what else can I do There is a place across the mountain top, across the mountain side They say there is a doctor there, might save our baby's life. (Chorus) Carry me across the mountain, before it is too late Heal my broken my body, death not be my fate Carry me across the mountain, don't give up on me I am but a helpless child, whose life depends on thee. Now I stand upon the mountain top, before my mother's grave And every year I visit here, to thank her for that day... (Chorus) Carry me across the mountain, before it is too late Heal my broken my body, death not be my fate Carry me across the mountain, don't give up on me I am but a helpless child, whose life depends on thee.
