[Intro]
Dm C x4

[Verse 1]
Dm                       C         Dm                C
The last time I saw you, you were on stage
Dm                  C                                  Dm
Your hair was wild, your eyes were bright
                              C
And you were in a rage
                 Am                     G      Am    F
You were swinging your guitar around
                   Am            G             Am
Cause they wanted to hear that sound
              F                      Dm C Dm
But you didn’t want to play

[Refrain]
       C             Dm     C  Dm
And I don’t blame you

I don’t blame yo-ou

Been around the world, in many situations
Dm                        C              Dm            C
Been inside many heads in different positions
              Am                  G              Am  F
But you never wanted them that way

But it never made sense to them anyway
                  Am                             G                  Am
Could you imagine if when they turned their backs
                  F                                 Dm    C Dm C
They were only scratching their heads

But then they were only kids

Then you would recall the deadly houses you grew up in
         Am                G                Am   F
Just because they knew your name
              Am                               G               Am   F
Doesn’t mean they know from where you came
             Am   G            Am              F                Dm C Dm
What a sad trick you thought that you had to play
      C           Dm      C  Dm  C
But I don’t blame you

[Pre-Refrain]
                   Dm      C Dm C
They never owned it
                         Am    G      Am        F
And you never owed it to them anyway

[Refrain]
             C        Dm  C
I don’t blame you
