Shane Grove delivers mail in North Central Ohio five days a week. The other days, he's writing songs that end up in the hands of Tanya Tucker, David Allen Coe, and Eddie Montgomery — and he's got the stories to prove it, including the one about writing "A Million Reasons" on a notepad while walking around downtown Cincinnati, waiting to find out if David Allen Coe's federal court hearing had gone his way.
