Lyric Meanings
In lyrics of the song, Musgraves sings "slept in a room with the ghost of Gram Parsons." Musgraves has elaborated on the meaning of this lyric, saying that she has stayed at "the infamous Joshua Tree Inn" Motel, in California" several times, including filming the video for Follow Your Arrow there. The motel is where 27-yr old singer-song writer, Parsons, died of an overdose in 1973, see also: the Death of Gram Parsons. The motel is rumored to be haunted, and Musgraves has said that she felt she had paranormal experiences, such as objects moving/art taken down off the wall.
