about

Heartache Song: Another superb number written by the legendary Allan Caswell. I chose this song ‘cause I thought I could get fairly close to occasionally emulating George Jones’s tone, without the extra anatomy! 😂

lyrics

I thank God for Jamie Johnson
That I’ve still got room to move
We’ve got time for just one more
With a slow, three-quarter groove
It’s a soundtrack to your memories
From where it all went wrong
Sometimes you’re going to need,
A heartache song

It’s the way that Harlan wrote them
Gets right to your heart
And it’s the whiskey chased with memories
In that lonely, late-night bar
They’re the songs that you can drink to
When the dream is almost gone
Sometimes you’re going to need,
A heartache song

You get rain with every rainbow
And a thorn with every rose
The world ain’t got it in for you
It’s just the way it goes
That’s where gals like me come in
‘cause here’s where we belong
Sometimes you’re going to need,
A heartache song

There are times you wanna tell him
‘Bout the changes he’s made in you
But you need to keep it simple
Just three chords… and the truth
You were just about to sing it
But he’d already gone
That’s when; you’re going to need,
A heartache song

You get rain with every rainbow
A thorn with every rose
The world ain’t got it in for you
It’s just the way it goes
That’s where gals like me come in
But we don’t stay too long
Sometimes you’re going to need,
A heartache song

You get rain with every rainbow
And a thorn with every rose
The world ain’t got it in for you
It’s just the way it goes
And that’s where fools like us come in
When the hurtin’ gets too strong
Sometimes you’re going to need,
A heartache song

Sometimes you’re going to need,
A heartache song
