[Verse 1]
C#maj7 C7
I stood with my hands open wide
Fm A#7
Waiting for a sign from your dead eyes
A#m7
And you stood there
C7
With your mournful sighs
Fm A#7
Ignoring my, my voice asking why, why
C#maj7 C7 Fm
It took a week for you to speak while I was screaming
A#7
I needed to see eye to eye
A#m7 C7 Fm
They said to follow waiting for a crumb but hungry tastes like numb
A#7
I was tired
A#7 A#7
I'm not done
[Chorus]
A#m7 C7
And you're so good at acting so good
Fm A#7
Making sure I'd fall
C#maj7
Blame it on time
C7
Blame it on alcohol
Fm
Blame the new social trends
A#7
Tell me all good things end
A#m7
Say it's your heart
C7
How it was doomed from the start
Fm
Call me your perfect girl
A#7
Cut me out of your world
C#maj7
Blame it on your life
C7
But I
Fm Fm
Will blame it on you
[Verse 2]
C#maj7 C7
I told myself that if I tried
Fm A#7
Harder I could buy your affection
I could try
A#m7 C7
Rumor said if I waited that you'd come 'round soon
Fm
But the clock ticked on and you
A#7 A#7
Turned away you left no clue
[Chorus]
A#m7
You're so damn good
C7
At acting so good
Fm A#7
Making me feel small
A#m7
Blame it on time
C7
Blame it on alcohol
Fm
Blame the new social trends
A#7
Tell me all good things end
A#m7
Say it's your heart
C7
How it was doomed from the start
Fm
Call me your perfect girl
A#7
Cut me out of your world
C#maj7
Blame it on your life
C7
But I
Fm Fm
Will blame it on you
[Bridge]
C#maj7 C7 Fm
With burned fingertips I reached for your face
C#maj7 C7 Fm
And like a fool was met again by flames
C#maj7 C7 Fm
My mouth rehearsed and almost said your name
A#m7 C7
But words are just words
A#m7 C7
Silence hurts worse
[Chorus]
A#m7
So blame it on time
C7
Blame it on alcohol
Fm
Blame the new social trends
A#7 A#7
Tell me all good things end
A#m7
And I'll blame it on her
I'll blame it on me
C7
I'll say I was blind I didn't see
Fm
I'll blame the age
I'll blame your past
A#7
They tell me this heartache it won't last
C#maj7
You can blame it on your life
C7
But I
C#maj7
You can blame it on your life
C7
But I
Fm
Will blame it on
