[Verse 1]
Fmaj7 E7
I stood with my hands open wide
Am D7
Waiting for a sign from your dead eyes
Dm7
And you stood there
E7
With your mournful sighs
Am D7
Ignoring my, my voice asking why, why
Fmaj7 E7 Am
It took a week for you to speak while I was screaming
D7
I needed to see eye to eye
Dm7 E7 Am
They said to follow waiting for a crumb but hungry tastes like numb
D7
I was tired
D7 D7
I'm not done
[Chorus]
Dm7 E7
And you're so good at acting so good
Am D7
Making sure I'd fall
Fmaj7
Blame it on time
E7
Blame it on alcohol
Am
Blame the new social trends
D7
Tell me all good things end
Dm7
Say it's your heart
E7
How it was doomed from the start
Am
Call me your perfect girl
D7
Cut me out of your world
Fmaj7
Blame it on your life
E7
But I
Am Am
Will blame it on you
[Verse 2]
Fmaj7 E7
I told myself that if I tried
Am D7
Harder I could buy your affection
I could try
Dm7 E7
Rumor said if I waited that you'd come 'round soon
Am
But the clock ticked on and you
D7 D7
Turned away you left no clue
[Chorus]
Dm7
You're so damn good
E7
At acting so good
Am D7
Making me feel small
Dm7
Blame it on time
E7
Blame it on alcohol
Am
Blame the new social trends
D7
Tell me all good things end
Dm7
Say it's your heart
E7
How it was doomed from the start
Am
Call me your perfect girl
D7
Cut me out of your world
Fmaj7
Blame it on your life
E7
But I
Am Am
Will blame it on you
[Bridge]
Fmaj7 E7 Am
With burned fingertips I reached for your face
Fmaj7 E7 Am
And like a fool was met again by flames
Fmaj7 E7 Am
My mouth rehearsed and almost said your name
Dm7 E7
But words are just words
Dm7 E7
Silence hurts worse
[Chorus]
Dm7
So blame it on time
E7
Blame it on alcohol
Am
Blame the new social trends
D7 D7
Tell me all good things end
Dm7
And I'll blame it on her
I'll blame it on me
E7
I'll say I was blind I didn't see
Am
I'll blame the age
I'll blame your past
D7
They tell me this heartache it won't last
Fmaj7
You can blame it on your life
E7
But I
Fmaj7
You can blame it on your life
E7
But I
Am
Will blame it on
