 C                                G  
I'm sorry for the times that I left you home  
                            Am  
I was on the road and you were alone  
                            F  
I'm sorry for the times that I had to go  
                            C  
I'm sorry for the fact that I did not know  
C                            G  
That you were sitting home just wishing we  
                                   Am  
Could go back to when it was just you and me  
                            F  
I'm sorry for the times I would ne-glect  
                        C  
I'm sorry for the times I disrespect  
C                                  G  
I'm sorry for the wrong things that I've done  
                                  Am  
I'm sorry I'm not always there for my sons  
                            F  
I'm sorry for the fact that I'm not a-ware  
                                    C  
That you can't sleep at night when I am not there  
C                            G  
Because I'm in the streets like everyday  
                               Am  
I'm sorry for the things that I did not say  
                              F  
Like how you are the best thing in my world  
                               C  
And how I'm so proud to call you my girl  
C                        G  
I understand that there's some problems  
                      Am  
And I'm not too blind to know  
                    F  
All the pain you kept inside you  
                       C  
Even though you might not show  
C                        G  
If I can't apologize for being wrong  
                    Am  
Then it's just a shame on me  
                    F  
I'll be the reason for your pain  
                        C  
And you can put the blame on me  
C                    G  
You can put the blame on me  
                      Am  
You can put the blame on me  
                    F  
You can put the blame on me  
                    C  
You can put the blame on me  
C                            G  
Said you can put the blame on me  
                        Am  
Said you can put the blame on me  
                        F  
Said you can put the blame on me  
                    C  
You can put the blame on me  
 
The song follows this pattern throughout.
