As you sit there in your loneliness confused as you must be
F C G7
I'm sure a dozen questions come to mind
C F C G7
And if you're wondering why I left you after all you've done for me
F G7 C
I guess you'll have to blame it on the times
F C
The many times you had your way no matter what the cost
F C G7
And the many times you took for granted love you now have lost
C F C G7
And if I've hurt you darling I don't mean to be unkind
F G7 C
I guess you'll have to blame it on the times
F C G7
That small conceited world of yours could never understand
F C G7
That to want to stand alone is not a crime
C F C G7
And if for one time in my life I'm acting like a man
F G7 C
I guess you'll have to blame it on the times
F C
Blame it on the many times a hiding place I'd seek
F C G7
Afraid to say what's on my mind and ashamed for being weak
C F C G7
So if at last I'm seeing after so long being blind
F G7 C
I suppose you'll have to blame it on the times
