Yeah I have a "sad" list for when I need to cry. These and Sweet Old World by Lucinda Williams and Road by Nick Drake, because he didn't find a road to take him home, and the stories about how he was so depressed he'd go into the studio and lay flat on the floor to record the songs.

John Prine also has that Sam Stone song, that is less poignant and more aggressively sad but so real sounding too.
