"Bar at the End of the World" is a song written by J. T. Harding, Aimee Mayo, and David Lee Murphy and recorded by American country music artist Kenny Chesney, released on 2 January 2017 as the third single from Chesney's album Cosmic Hallelujah (2016).
The song is a mid-tempo recalling a bar. Co-writer J. T. Harding told Nash Country Daily that the song was inspired by "these bars there that you can only get to by boat" that he saw while visiting a friend in the Virgin Islands. He said that he did not have a title for the song until he saw a sign reading "Tavern at the End of the World" in Boston. Harding presented the idea to David Lee Murphy at a songwriting session, and Murphy provided the opening lines.[1]
