  			G    
I'LL BLAME THE VAIN FOR WHAT WE WEAR 
                   Am                 G 
AND I'LL BLAME THE BLIND WHEN WE CAN'T SEE 
I'LL BLAME IT ALL ON SOMEONE ELSE 
                    Am    C              G 
'TIL THERE'S NOBODY LEFT THEN I'LL JUST BLAME ME. INTRO 

I'LL BLAME HER MIND       FOR THE THOUGHTS WE SHARE 
AND I'LL BLAME HER HEART  FOR EVERY TIME WE CARED 
I'LL BLAME IT ALL         ON HOW WE USED TO BE 
UNTIL SHE'S FINALLY GONE  THEN I'LL JUST BLAME ME. 

                D        C           G 
SO GO AHEAD AND BLAME ANYTHING YOU WANT 
                          D   
'CAUSE IT ALL ENDS UP THE SAME 
      C                                      D 
WHEN EVERYTHING THAT YOU'VE BEEN CLAIMIN' IS WRONG. 

--- INSTRUMENTAL --- 
                      D 
(DON'T YOU KNOW THAT) BLAME 
          C       G  
IS ALWAYS NEVER ENOUGH 
                         D 
IT JUST KEEPS YOU IN THE GAME 
       C                               D  
UNTIL YOU'VE ONLY GOT YOURSELF LEFT TO BLUFF. 

         
           Am     C                   G 
'TIL SHE'S FINALLY GONE   THEN I'LL JUST BLAME ME...
