Music video
The music video was directed by Trey Fanjoy and premiered in September 2016. The video begins surveying a wrecked car which Lambert eventually stumbles out of. She is then shown walking down a country road away from the accident and eventually comes to a small town where she stops in a bar for a drink. She then continues to walk until she comes to a crossroads, where a car similar to the one from the beginning of the video pulls up without a driver behind the wheel. She gets into the backseat of the car and the video ends with it driving away.
