     G#m    F#          E      D#
Keep waking up in the freezing cold
With your mother's tears coming through the walls
And that same old feeling spinning 'round your head
Your daddy's leaving town again

And you can hear your baby sister scream
Your innocence get up and leave
It's that same old feeling spinning 'round your veins
Your daddy's leaving town again
And again, and again

Chorus:
        A                 E
And I blame myself for I do
        A                C#m G#m
And I blame myself for I do
        A                       E
And I blame myself, yeah it's true
D#      G#m F# E D#
Oh, for you

You keep waking on the bedroom floor
Seeing shadows underneath your door
It's that same old feeling spinning 'round your head
When your daddy's leaving town again
And again and again

Chorus:
And you see, I blame myself, oh I do
Yeah I blame myself, oh I do
Oh we blame ourselves, so it's true
All for you
