I have to agree with Barbara Strange Fruit by Billie Holliday, real sad song, she was very courageous ..she was an incredible woman and artist..
my second choice is Epitaph/ King crimson
Mr Bojangles/ R Williams version
Nature Boy/ Nat King Cole

Strange Fruit sung by Billie Holiday. It's about Lynchings in the south. She was very courageous in singing this song , I believe in the 30's or 40's, publicly to a white audience.

Christmas shoes for mama by Kenny Chesney
It was almost Christmas time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy that last gift or two, not really in the Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me was a little boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like little boys do
And in his hands he held a pair of shoes
His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe what I heard him say
Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
He counted pennies for what seemed like years
Then the cashier said, "Son, there's not enough here"
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He said Mama made Christmas good at our house
Though most years she just did without
Tell me Sir, what am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes
So I laid the money down, I just had to help him out
I'll never forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's gonna look so great
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
Bridge:
I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew that God had sent that little boy
To remind me just what Christmas is all about
Repeat Chorus

There's an Eric Clapton song from his Pilgrim album called River of Tears......you might want to hit the bar after that one.

I'll agree with the person who said "tears in heaven" by eric clapton.. of course because of the lyrics.. but also because the story behind the lyrics is so well known, and is so sad.

Depends on what's going on in my life....
Currently, "What Hurts the Most" by Rascal Flatts
some other ones that are good are "I'm Moving On", "Skin", "I Can't Hate You Anymore", and "Lips of an Angel"
