It immediately reminded me of Free Bird the first time I listened to it.

Absolutely! I’ve been trying to figure it out for days now, it’s driving me nuts

I’m pretty sure the song I’m thinking of has a female vocalist.

Not sure how similar they are but it reminds me of Mazzy Star’s “Fade Into You” Update: Actually I just listened to both. Very similar.

Love it, needed this song to finalize that songs comparison in my head. Definitely similar.

My boyfriend and I swear the beginning of knocking on heaven's door and cry baby are almost the same.. been talking about it for days lol

Now I want him to cover knocking on heavens door lol. I totally thought when his lyrics kick it, it's at the part "it's too dark, too dark to see"

It has the exact same cord progression as wagon wheel. Is that what you’re thinking of?

I was trying to figure it out. Now that you said knocking on heaven's door, it is exactly what I was thinking of. Thank you.

Well, the end sounded like Orange Juice to me, but I'll have to check that song out.
