Don’t Blame the Tune

[Chorus:]
Don't blame the words
Don't blame the key
Don't blame the tune
Or sweet harmonies
Spare my guitar
It's not to blame
These are just pawns
In my wicked game

They didn't know how I'd use them to hurt you
They had no hand in your pain
They had no power to refuse to be put through
The tip of my pen for my personal gain

[Chorus:]
So don't blame the words
Don't blame the key
Don't blame the tune
Or the sweet harmonies
Spare my guitar
It's not to blame
These are just pawns
In my wicked game

See I needed to tell you, you're cruel to the core
I needed to know that you'd see
How much it hurt when you walked out the door
And a verse and refrain do that better than me

[Chorus]
