If we woulda stopped at one or two
G C
But don't blame it on whiskey
Em
No, this ain't about a drink
F C

And not just the bottom of the glass
F C

Em
And not just the bottom of the glass
F C
This heartbreak train's pickin' up steam
Dm G
And we're standin' on the track

Yeah, I can blame it on you
G
Or you can blame it on me

But don't blame it on ...
