James Marriott - Don’t Blame Me

[Verse 1]
N.C.
You touch me too softly
N.C.
And I know what that means
N.C.
That you don’t really love me
N.C.
As morose as it seems

[Verse 2]
Bm A G D/G
When I leave
Bm A G D/G
I’ll pull on the last of our strings
Bm A G D/G
And you’ll see
Bm A
That there’s always the next thing
G D/G
There’s always the next thing

[Chorus]
D A
I’m cutting our ties
G
That’s all I can do
G
Don’t blame me
D A
Don’t act surprised
G
It’s only for you
D
The best of our times
F#
Were the worst of your life
G
Tell me who you’re lying to
D A
Cover your eyes
G
But peer through the lines
A
Cause when I cry
A
It’s only for you

[Verse 3]
Bm A G D/G
All I did was agree
Bm A
To mask all the missteps
G D/G
For our chemistry
Bm A G D/G
Was it all you had dreamed?
Bm A G D/G
Was I all you hate but you knew that I’d be

[Chorus]
D A
I’m cutting our ties
G
That’s all I can do
G
Don’t blame me
D A
Don’t act surprised
G
It’s only for you

Cover your eyes

N.C.
No this path never stops
N.C.
And I’m already sick
N.C.
Of the next mountain top
N.C.
No this high couldn’t last
N.C.
In a moment it’ll move on
N.C.
And stay in the past
N.C.
We were never in love
N.C.
So when we were fucking who were you thinking of?
N.C.
No I’m never enough
N.C.
And I’ll fall from your hands
N.C.
Straight into your gloves
