Now as a true Canadian I of course love the ladies, but to be honest you have to 
admit that their songs 
overly challenging, when looking at the chords anyways.  This song is only three 
chords almost the whole way through.

You'll have to bare with me on the lyrics though, I've lost my liner notes for 
Gordon, so this is all from memory.

"Blame it on me" - From the album "Gordon"

Capo on II

Em                     D                        Am
Well here we are again, and we're looking at each other
as if each other was to blame.
Em                          D                                   Am
You think you're so smart, but I've seen you naked
and I'll probably see you naked again.

Milly Vanilly told you to blame it on the rain
but if you blame it on the rain tell me what can be gained
If all else fails you can blame it on me

Em         D                                   Am
If all else fails you can blame it on me     (4x)

Then you smile again, and you're looking at me
like there's something I'm supposed to say
"Forgive me father, but I've fallen in love"
and that's all I have for confession today
Maybe if you asked me on any other given day
I wouldn't have time for you or anything else that you had to say
So if all else fails you can blame it on me

If all else fails you can blame it on me (4x)

G              D                  C
Yes dear I love you, but sometimes you think that love's not enough for you
G                            D                                  C
So you want to play mind games, well that's fine go ahead la la la I can't hear you.

Well here you are and you're
a hundred thousand miles away
They say that absence makes
 the heart grow fungus

 I wax poetic as you're
waxing your leg.
You say you think there's a
traitor among us

If all else fails you can blame it on me (4x)
