Composition

"She's with Me" is an uptempo, pop-leaning country song with influences of bluegrass.[3][4] The song includes "catchy", hook-filled lyrics and "hand-clapped rhythms."[4][5] Lyrically, the song expresses adoration for a woman the narrator feels is "out of his league."[6]

The duo's record label, Open Road Recordings, announced "She's with Me" as the album's fourth single on May 13, 2015 and serviced the song to Canadian country radio that day.[7] It was released to digital retailers worldwide the following day, on May 14, 2015.[8] The song was re-released in the United States on October 14, 2016 through Atlantic Records and Warner Music Nashville as the second promotional single from Dear Life when that record became available for pre-order.[9] "She's with Me" was released to American country radio on April 17, 2017.[2]
