Note: Thanks to 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 Em9/D Cmaj7
Your words are like knives
Em Em9/D Cmaj7
They peel my skin and pierce my soul
Em Cmaj7
Your body will burn tonight
Em Em9/D Cmaj7
Though your heart may still 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 Em9/D Cmaj7
The sheets are stained with
Em Em9/D Cmaj7
Memories of your soft kiss
Em Em9/D Cmaj7
Now this is all I have
Em Em9/D Cmaj7
Paper and pen to remember you with
(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
(Outro)
