Em9/D * C i will blame myself verse 2 Em Em9/D Cmaj7 the sheets are stained with Em Em9/D Cmaj7 memories of your soft kiss Em Em9/D Cmaj7 now this is all i have Em Em9/D Cmaj7 paper and pen to remember you with chorus Em9/D * C and i will blame myself Em9/D * C and i will blame myself Em9/D * C for holding onto what i hoped would keep you by my side . Em9/D * C i will blame myself outro G C can i have you? G C can i have you? G C can i have you? G C Em9/D * can i have you?
