Dallas plays on the record, but I found these chords are good to use when you just want
to play the song in standard tuning. The switch from Em to Em9/D to Cmaj7 is pretty quick so
look out for that. Also, when playing the C, if you lift off your first finger after the
first measure it sounds a bit better.
(Verse 1)
Your words are like knives
They peel my skin and pierce my soul
Your body will burn tonight
Though your heart may still remain cold
(Chorus)
And I will blame myself
And I will blame myself
For holding onto what i hoped would keep you by my side.
I will blame myself
(Verse 2)
The sheets are stained with
Memories of your soft kiss
Now this is all I have
Paper and pen to remember you with
(Chorus)
And I will blame myself
And I will blame myself
For holding onto what i hoped would keep you by my side.
I will blame myself
(Outro)
Can I have you?
Can I have you?
Can I have you?
Can i have you?
