Hurtin’ Song

Hurtin' Song

Interstate winding on
400 miles, between midnight and dawn
Clouds roll in, driving rain
Radio must know my pain

(Chorus)
When I hear a hurtin’ song
It's the way I feel
About how a love went wrong
How a heart won't heal
Tonight I’m lonesome
But I'm not alone
‘Cause it breaks the chill
It makes me strong
When I hear a hurtin' song-ong-ong-ong

Every word, hanging on
Cold hard truth, your love is gone
Bitter end, story's sad
It feels so good, to hurt this bad

(Chorus)
When I hear a hurtin' song
It's the way I feel
About how a love went wrong
How a heart won't heal
Tonight I'm lonesome
But I’m not alone
‘Cause it breaks the chill
It makes me strong
When I hear a hurtin’ song-ong-ong-ong

(Fiddle and guitar solos)

(Chorus)
I hear a hurtin' song
It’s the way I feel
About how a love went wrong
How a heart won't heal
Tonight I'm lonesome
But I know I'm not alone
‘Cause it breaks the chill
It makes me strong
When I hear a hurtin’ song-ong-ong-ong
