Country music star Dierks Bentley's “Gone” music video find him scenes inspired by The Office, MacGyver, Game Of Thrones and Full House....

Country music star Dierks Bentley has released the music video for his latest single, “Gone”! The song was penned by Nicolle Galyon, Ben Johnson, and Niko Moon. The video finds Dierks hitting rock bottom as his own life plays out before him through iconic television scenes where each one is worse than the previous.

“It just always ends poorly for me in this video,” said Bentley. “I definitely had a lot more fun making it than it looks though…we got to film a bunch of scenes inspired by some of my favorite shows like The Office, MacGyver, Game Of Thrones and Full House. And I got to collaborate with some new directors I’ve never worked with, so I left at the end of a really long day feeling really happy and inspired about a kind of sad song.”

The “Gone” music video was shot in Nashville in November and produced by Lora Criner, Angie Lorenz and J.R Wilson, directed by Wes Edwards, Ed Pryor, Travis Nicholson, Running Bear and Sam Siske with animation by Skylar Wilson. It finds Bentley watching TV in agony while also taking on nearly every character he encounters on his TV screen from MacGyver to an infomercial host. Watch it below!

Song Lyrics

My buddies think I’m on the lake
Boss thinks I’ve been sick for days
And mama’s probably on her way
‘Cause I ain’t picked up the phone

I’ve been a million places
But they’re all up in my head
Over-drinking, overthinking ever since you left

I’ve been gone, I’ve been gone
I’ve been sittin’ on the couch watching TV all day long
All day long, I’ve been tryin’ to figure out how a good thing went wrong
Faster than that freight train, farther than that airplane
Sadder than a country song
Headed down that highway, anywhere but my way
Ever since you moved on, I’ve been gone

Took a trip down memory lane
Checked into hotel heartbreak
Passed rock bottom on the way
Without leaving my living room

I’ve been a million places
But they’re all up in my head
Over-drinking, overthinking ever since you left

I’ve been gone, I’ve been gone
I’ve been sittin’ on the couch watching TV all day long
All day long, I’ve been tryin’ to figure out how a good thing went wrong
Faster than that freight train, farther than that airplane
Sadder than a country song
Headed down that highway, anywhere but my way
Ever since you moved on, I’ve been gone
Yeah, I’ve been gone

All the clothes are on the floor
All the mail’s by the door
All the whiskey bottles in my bed
All the dishes in the sink
All the gas is in the tank
All the neighbors probably think I’m dead

I’ve been gone, I’ve been gone
I’ve been sittin’ on the couch watching TV all day long
All day long I’ve been tryin’ to figure out how a good thing went wrong
Faster than that freight train, farther than that airplane
Sadder than a country song
Headed down that highway, anywhere but my way
Ever since you moved on, I’ve been gone
I’ve been gone
Gone
