Bartender Blues may not have actually been recorded by Vince Gill but he has played it live at tribute concerts to George Jones.
So this album cover just relates to that fact, but I haven't found an actual tribute album with Vince singing this song.
This one is a bit of a high sing in the key of C but you can always lower the key if need be with the chords C, C7, F, Dm and a G and G7. Played in standard tuning with a root down up down up rhythm pattern and a bit of melody line picking required
Go Rest High On That Mountain to the surprise of many, was not a #1 song for Vince Gill. In fact in the US it peaked at #14 and in Canada it did make the top 10 reaching #7 on the country charts.
Vince Gill was writing this song in 1989 after the death of Keith Whitley but never finished the song. A few years later his brother Bob died of a heart attach and that prompted Vince to finish the song. Backup vocals on this were from great friends Ricky Skaggs and Patty Loveless.
The track reached CMA Song Of The Year in 1996.
This one I play in Drop D Tuning with the chords D, G and A playing a down down up down up down up rhythm pattern and repeat. A bit of lead also required here.
My Favorite Movie was a track on the album Down To My Last Bad Habit from Vince Gill back in 2016, but the song was never released as a single.

The music video also has a cameo from George Jones near the end where he is seen riding a lawnmower tractor as he was famous for doing during his beer drinking days.

Trying To Get Over You was another #1 hit song by Vince Gill from his I Still Believe In You album from 1993. The song topped the charts in both the US and Canada in 1994 and was his last #1 hit for 23 years, when he was a guest vocalist on a song from Chris Young called Sober Saturday night.
The music video also featured his ex-wife Janis

Young Mans Town was a single from Vince's 2003 album entitled Next Big Thing. The song peaked at #44 on the US Country charts that year.
