Tim McGraw was on the verge of burnout until Faith Hill showed him a better life | Music City Minute

Music is a way of interpreting human experience. Whether it's hiring a wino to decorate your house, your daddy giving you a funny name, waiting on a woman, or describing a date Applebee’s - someone has written a country song about it. Of course, not all compositions have a comedic tone. Matter of fact, I bet you know a few songs about love, respect, war, heartache, and a fellow who was burning the candle at both ends until a woman walked in his life and saved him.

On that note, Tim McGraw will be the first to admit that his wife, Faith Hill, was his saving grace. The 58-year-old goes on to explain how his threadbare upbringing could not have prepared him for massive fame. For the first time in his life, he had an abundance of cash, which he used to fuel a never-ending party. Luckily, McGraw was blessed with divine intervention, and through the love and patience of Faith Hill, he realized there was a lot more to live for besides getting stoned and singing it all night long. Today, the country power couple remain strong, having raised three beautiful daughters, Audrey, Gracie and Maggie and will celebrate 30 years of marriage in October.
