F  C   G
I sat down
        C     Em   F
With a gun to my head
    F    C  G
He told me not to move
            C        Em F
Cause if I did, I’d be dead

I cried out
But nobody ever came
Oh it’s so sad
When it ends, what a shame

Chorus:
Dm
Maybe, maybe
                 G
Maybe it wasn’t right
         C
Ohh and maybe, maybe
                     F
He caught me on my blindside

               G
But who’s to blame?
           F
Who’s to blame?
           G
Who’s to blame?
           F
Who’s to blame?

I sat down with my face in both hands
I thought of all the fools
Had I become one in the end?

        Dm
I cried out
                 G
But nobody ever came
            C
Oh it’s so sad
                       F
When it ends, what a shame

Chorus:
Dm
Maybe, maybe
                  G
Maybe it wasn’t right
         C
Ohh and maybe, maybe
                     F
He caught me on my blindside

               G
But who’s to blame?
           F
Who’s to blame?
           G
Who’s to blame?
           F
Who’s to blame?

Chorus:
Maybe (Maybe)
Maybe it wasn't right
Oh, and maybe (Maybe)
He caught me on my blind side
Oh, oh, and maybe (Maybe)
I tried too hard (Tried too hard)
Oh, oh, and maybe (Maybe)
I didn't try hard enough
