intro: 1x G - D - C
 
G
Blame it on the Tetons.
 D                       C
Yeah, I need a scapegoat now.
G
No my dog won't bite you,
 D
Though it had the right to.                    
C
You oughta give her credit
                                  G
Cuz she knows I would've let it happen.
 
D - C
 
G
Blame it on the weekends.
D                 C
God I need a cola now.
G
Oh we mumble loudly,
D
Wear our blame so proudly.
C
Wear our blank expressions,
 
Trying to look interesting.
G
Blame it all on me cuz
D                      C
God I need a cold one now.
 
 
G
All them eager actors
D
Gladly taking credit 
C
for the lines created
...C...
By the people tucked away from 
 
G
sight / Is it a window 
D
from the room we're bound to.
C
If you need a way out,
 
Would you please just let me know how?
 
G
Blame it on the web but
D                          C
the spider is your problem now.
G
Language is the liquid
D
That we're all dissolved in.
C
Great for solving problems
...C...
After it creates a problem.
G
Blame it on the Tetons,
D                      C
God I need a scapegoat now.
 
humming over 2 verses of G - D - C
 
G                     C
Everyone's a building burning
 Am                         C
With no one to put the fire out.
G                        C
Standing at the window looking out,
 Am                         C
Waiting for time to burn us down.
G                    C
Everyone's an ocean drowning
 Am                        C
With no one really to show how.
G                       C
They might get a little better air
 Am                              C
If they turned themselves into a cloud.
 
G - D - C x3
