Blame Me ! Blame Me !

 
              
Intro: Bm  D  G  A 
 
             Bm 
And we could ride all night 
To the pace of the blinking light 
         D           G 
Wishing traffic was faster (traffic was faster) 
Keeping safe distance  but courting disaster 
A         Bm 
We could dance all night 
To the sounds of a starting fight 
          D          G 
Hoping change would come around (change would come around) 
                                       A 
Amazing division  how sweet the sound 
 
Bm 
Blame me! Blame me! Blame me! 
                                        D 
For mistakes you've made but you can't own 
G 
Hate me  hate me  hate me 
                                         A 
For every honest word that you've postponed 
Bm 
Leave me out of this 
                       D 
Your life's a sinking ship  so 
G 
Blame me  blame me  blame me 
                                           A 
For mistakes you've made but you can't own 
 
               Bm 
And we could stare all day 
At problems that won't go away 
   D           G 
Silence is pounding (silence is pounding) 
You're wearing me down  these corners they're rounding 
      A         Bm 
Then we could scream all night 
With no resolve still left in sight 
       D             G 
Stop saying you're sorry 
                                       A 
All of these words feel so very empty 
 
 
 
G              A 
Torturing ourselves  we must be into the abuse 
Bm 
If you're the rope that ties us together 
 A 
Please make me a noose 
            G 
Ask me to leave 
Then beg me just to stay 
        A 
Used to run to my arms  but now I walk away 
Bm 
Come and go as you please 
I'm like a part-time lover with well-worn knees 
Well  come on 
 
Chorus 
 
(Bm  D  G  A)
