Note: Thanks for youtube user madeindar for the chords. This isn't meant to match what
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)
[Em]Your words are [Em9/D]like k[Cmaj7]nives
[Em]They peel my skin [Em9/D]and pi[Cmaj7]erce my soul
[Em]Your body will burn [Cmaj7]tonight
[Em]Though your heart may [Em9/D]still [Cmaj7]remain cold
(Chorus)
Em9/D* C
And I will blame myself
Em9/D* C
And I will blame myself
Em9/D* C
For holding onto what i hoped would keep you by my side.
Em9/D* C
I will blame myself
(Verse 2)
[Em]The sheets [Em9/D]are st[Cmaj7]ained with
[Em]Memories [Em9/D]of [Cmaj7]your soft kiss
[Em]Now this is a[Em9/D]ll I [Cmaj7]have
[Em]Paper and pen [Em9/D]to rem[Cmaj7]ember you with
(Chorus)
Em9/D* C
And I will blame myself
