“Save Me The Trouble” is a song by American country duo Dan + Shay. It is the first single off their fifth studio album “Bigger Houses”. This song is about a guy falling hard for a girl in a bar, yet already anticipating that she’s ultimately going to break his heart. As they sing in the chorus, “Why don’t you save me the trouble / Give that heartache to somebody else / If you’re the kinda girl that’s only gonna wanna love and leave / A guy like me alone in this bar drinkin' double / Why don’t you save me the trouble.” Admitting he’s powerless to resist, the guy is begging the lady for an out “before you go wreck my whole life.” An ascending melody and cold ending add to the song’s impact. PR materials for “Bigger Houses,” their fifth album, promise that “Save Me The Trouble” sets the tone for the set “that emphasizes a more live, stripped-down feel.” The duo’s Dan Smyers, who co-produced the album, says, “We’re so proud of ‘Save Me The Trouble.’ This is honestly one of our favorite songs we’ve ever written and recorded. Every time I listen to it I just think, ‘Shay Mooney is the greatest singer in the entire world, singing his tail off in this one.‘ Ever since the day we wrote this one and started recording it, we were envisioning getting to sing this onstage in front of a crowd, and we feel like this is going to be a huge sing-along in our show.”
