What's country music without a little heartbreak? If you know absolutely anything about country music, you'll know that sad songs really thrive within the genre. That's part of what I love about country music. It's full of real, genuine feelings. Some of those feelings are love, and some are heartbreak. Sometimes you just want to listen to songs that are full of feeling, so here are twenty one of my absolute favorite sad country songs.
1. "How Far" by Martina McBride
