Seven Year Ache
[Verse 1: Aaron Watson]
You act like you were just born tonight
Face down in a memory but feelin' alright
So who does your past belong to today?
'Cause you don't say nothin' when you're feelin' this way

[Verse 2: Jenna Paulette]
Girls at the bar thinkin', "Who is this guy?"
But they don't think nothin' when they're tellin' you lies
You look so careless when you're shootin' that bull
Don't you know heartaches are heroes when their pockets are full?

[Chorus: Both]
Tell me you're tryin' to cure a seven-year ache
See what else your old heart can take
The boys say, "When is he gonna give us some room?"
The girls say, "God, I hope he comes back soon"

[Verse 3: Jenna Paulette]
Everybody's talkin', but you don't hear a thing
You're still uptown on your downhill swing
Boulevard's empty, why don't you come around?
Tell me, what's so great about sleepin' downtown?

[Verse 4: Aaron Watson]
There's plenty of dives to be someone you're not
You say you're lookin' for somethin' you might've forgot
Don't bother callin' to say you're leavin' alone
'Cause there's a fool on every corner when you're tryin' to get home
[Chorus: Both]
Tell me you're tryin' to cure a seven-year ache
See what else your old heart can take
The boys say, "When is he gonna give us some room?"
The girls say, "God, I hope he comes back soon"

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: Both]
So tell me you're tryin' to cure a seven-year ache
See what else your old heart can take
The boys say, "When is he gonna give us some room?"
The girls say, "God, I hope he comes back soon"
Tell me you're tryin' to cure a seven-year ache
See what else your old heart can take
The boys say, "When is he gonna give us some room?"
The girls say, "God, I hope he comes back soon"

[Outro: Aaron Watson, Jenna Paulette]
I hope he comes back soon
I hope he comes back soon
