Tonight The Heartache's On Me

Dixie Chicks · The Essential [2010]

You could'a heard a pin drop

When they walked through the door

I turned my eyes away

My heart fell to the floor

Someone whispered

Where's her halo?

She had an angels face

He stood there smilin' holdin' on

To the one who took my place



So tonight the heartache's on me, on me

Let's drink a toast to the fool who couldn't see

Bartender pour the wine 'cause the hurtin's all mine

Tonight, the heartache's on me



I wonder if he told her

She's the best he's ever known

The way he told me every night

When we were all alone

She'll find out when the new wears off

He'll find somebody new

She'll learn what heartache's all about

And what I'm goin' through



But tonight, the heartache's on me, on me

Let's drink a toast to the fool who couldn't see

Bartender pour the wine, 'cause the hurtin's all mine

Tonight, the heartache's on me



But tonight, the heartache's on me, on me

Let's drink a toast to the fool who couldn't see

Bartender pour the wine, 'cause the hurtin's all mine

Tonight, the heartache's on me



Oh yes tonight,

The heartache's on me
