"If My Heart Had Windows" is a country song written by Dallas Frazier and recorded by George Jones in 1967 on his album of the same name. Released as a single that year, Jones's version peaked at number seven on the Billboard Hot Country Singles charts.
In 1968, crooner Andy Russell performed a cover version (Capitol #2072) that peaked at number 29 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary Singles Chart.
Ernest Tubb also recorded a version on his 1968 Decca release Country Hit Time.
Twenty-one years after the original version, Patty Loveless recorded a cover of the song on her 1987 album, also entitled If My Heart Had Windows. Loveless's version was also a top-10 country hit — the first of her career — peaking at number 10 on the country music charts. It was also the song that she performed the evening that she was inducted into the membership of the Grand Ole Opry.
