C     G7    C         Dm7     Am      Dm7             G7    
If I expected love when first we kissed, blame it on my youth. 
 
   Dm            Dm7+   Dm7         C      G7      C7   
If only just for you did I exist, blame it on my youth. 
 
F             Dm7       G7 C      G7         E7 
I believed in everything,  like a child of three. 
 
Dm        Dm7+      Am       Am7/G Dm7     Bb9      G7 
You meant more than anything,      all the world to me. 
 
 
   C        G7    C         Dm7       Am    Dm7             G7 
If you were on my mind both night and day, blame it on my youth. 
 
  Dm           Dm7      G         C     Am      G7     C7 
If I forgot to eat and sleep and pray, blame it on my youth. 
 
    F            Em              F        Dm7        Fdim   E7 
And if I cried a little bit when first I learned the truth, 
 
      F       Edim    Dm7   Fdim     G7     C 
Don't blame it on my heart, blame it on my youth.
