[Verse 1]
Eb            Bb
I was a worm, I was a creature
  F                     Eb
I get on the ground the second I'd see you
    Eb         Bb         F
You cannot command your love

  Eb                Bb
I wasn't a catch, I wasn't a keeper
      F                             Eb                      Eb
I was walking around like I was the one who found dead John Cheever
Bb       F
Hands in glove

[Chorus]
   Eb          Gm
So blame it on me
  Bb           F
I really don't care
       Eb          Gm       F
It's a foregone conclusion

[Verse 2]
  Eb                      Bb
I see you in stations and on invitations
      Eb                    F
You'd fall into rivers with friends on the weekend
Eb       Bb      F
Innocent skies above

  Eb                         Bb
Carin at the liquor store, I can't wait to see you
F                             Eb                      Eb
Walking around like I was the one who found dead John Cheever
       Bb       F
In the house of love

[Chorus]
   Eb          Gm
So blame it on me
   Bb          F
I really don't care
       Eb          Gm       Bb   F
It's a foregone conclusion
   Eb               Gm
It wasn't so bad, I wasn't that sick
    Bb               F
Got taken by love, I wasn't that quick
       Eb          Gm       Bb   F
It's a foregone conclusion
     Eb                 Gm
It's gonna be different after tonight
       Bb                F
You're gonna see me in a different light
  Eb          Gm       Bb   F
A foregone conclusion

       Eb          Gm       F
It's a foregone conclusion
    Eb      Gm     Bb           F
I'm already seeing stars in the air
       Eb          Gm       F
It's a foregone conclusion
