Blame It On Us

James Barre


Tom: F#m

A               C#
 Woke up I just had another bad dream
F#m           D
 Everyone's a robot and against me
A                 C#
 Somewhere out in 2045
F#m            D
 Everyone's addicted to the light

A            C#
 All my insecurities are paid for
F#m                D
 Kids are making millions on their back porch
A              C#
 I don’t wanna be the kind of guy
F#m                         D
 Who sold his soul to the devil online


[Pre-chorus]
A   C#
 Oh no
     F#m
It's you
    D
You did this to me

A    C#
 You took
    F#m
Our youth
        D
And the air that we breathe

A      C#
 Don’t let
   F#m
Us speak
    D
Our minds
A        C#        F#m*
 When it all goes wrong…


[Chorus]
                            A
They just wanna blame it on us
   C#   F#m
Oh, oh, oh
D                           A
They just wanna blame it on us
   C#   F#m
Oh, oh, oh

D
They just wanna blame it on
  A
A generation
       C#
That's close to breaking
F#m               D
Everything that sucks
A   C#   F#m
 Oh, oh, oh
D
They just wanna blame it on-


[Verse 2]
A             C#
 Every step I take is a bad one
F#m               D
 I’m just gonna write another sad song
A              C#
 Hoping that I get a couple likes
F#m            D
 I am just a product of the times

A          C#
 Only ever go out if it's posted
F#m               D
 I'm not really happy till you notice
A         C#
 I'm just living for the ride
F#m                           D
 Who cares what’s really inside?


[Pre-chorus]
A   C#
 Oh no
     F#m
It's you
    D
You did this to me

A    C#
 You took
    F#m
Our youth
        D
And the air that we breathe

A      C#
 Don’t let
   F#m
Us speak
    D
Our minds
A        C#        F#m*
 When it all goes wrong…


[Chorus]
                            A
They just wanna blame it on us
   C#   F#m
Oh, oh, oh
D                           A
They just wanna blame it on us
   C#   F#m
Oh, oh, oh

D
They just wanna blame it on
  A
A generation
       C#
That's close to breaking
F#m               D
Everything that sucks
A   C#   F#m
 Oh, oh, oh
D
They just wanna blame it on us


[Bridge]
A   C#        F#m   D
 Oh no, it’s you
A    C#        F#m     D
 You took our youth
A      C#      F#m     D
 Don’t let us speak
A        C#        F#m*
 When it all goes wrong...


[Chorus]
                            A
They just wanna blame it on us
   C#   F#m
Oh, oh, oh
D                           A
They just wanna blame it on us
   C#   F#m
Oh, oh, oh

D
They just wanna blame it on
  A
A generation
       C#
That's close to breaking
F#m               D
Everything that sucks
A   C#   F#m
 Oh, oh, oh
D                           A*
They just wanna blame it on us


[Tag]
   C#*  F#m*
Oh, oh, oh
D*
They just wanna blame it on us
