Don`t Blame It On Me
(D. Addrisi - D. Addrisi)

The B-side of Cherish, also recorded around the same time by the Vogues as
Don`t Blame The Rain (B-side of Please Mr. Sun). I transcribed it in G
even though it`s about 3/4 tone sharp and sounds almost in A-flat.


Intro [2X]:

bass, doubled w/bells:

G Gsus4 G Gsus4
v v v v v v v v

Verse 1:

G Gsus4 G Gsus4
Go blame the rain for your cloudburst of teardrops
G Gsus4 G C
Blame the wind, say how lonely and cold it can be
Cm D7 G
You asked to be free
Cm
Don`t blame it on me

Verse 2:

Go blame the night for the darkness descending
Blame the wind, say it laughs at you now that you`re free
That`s how you want it to be
Don`t blame it on me

Chorus:

G C/G
Now your life is empty
D7/G G
And only tears remain
G C/G
Your high hopes turned to heartache
C D7sus4 D7
Your freedom turned to chains

[repeat verse 1]

[repeat chorus]

Verse 3:

Go blame rain and the wind and the darkness
Blame the world for the way things have turned out to be
Blame whatever you please
Cm
But don`t...
D7 G
Don`t blame it on me

Coda [repeat to fade]:

Cm D7 G
Don`t blame it on me
