Blame It on Me Unwritten Law
Blame It On Me Tab by Unwritten Law, www.Ultimate-Guitar.Com
Artist: Unwritten Law
Song: Blame It On Me
Album: Elva and From Music In High Places
Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
Tabbed by: Hamish Tims (Australia Rocks!!!)
This is a great up-tempo song by Unwritten Law which is on two of their albums. The
normal version is on Elva but the live acoustic one which I am tabbing out here is on
From Music In High Places. I got the other tab on this site and it might sound right
but it is NOT the way that Unwritten Law plays this song. First of all they are not
crap and DON'T need to play in Drop D tuning. If you are a beginner then you might use
Drop D tuning but I've been playing for a few years now and absolutely dig Unwritten Law
so I just wanna play this song RIGHT! Another thing is that in this song on the DVD they
have THREE guitars but they all pretty much play the same thing so I've only kinda tabbed
it out for two. The second guitar just plays the chords I put above the lines. So here
you go!!!

Lyrics:
Sorry for making it so complicated I just wanted a top quality tab. That C chord I use
is actually a Cadd9 but I used C to save space. Queries, complaints, corrections or
