You say this isn't like you
Letting me wake up beside you
Last night you weren't trying to be my friend
We could go on forever
How both of us know better
Than to let things go too far too fast again.
But if somebody has to take the fall
Blame it on the steel guitar
That slid you across the room into my arms
Kicking sawdust around that bar
Like we were on a movie screen
Blame it on the neon sign
That painted you in such a perfect light.
If you're mad because it feels so right
Don't blame it on me
I swear this isn't like me
To stay long enough for coffee
I'm good at showing myself out the door
But for some strange reason
I'm startin' to believe in
Things that I was running from before
But if you try to say that it's my fault
I'll Blame it on the steel guitar
That slid you across the room into my arms
Kicking sawdust around that bar
Like we were on a movie screen
Blame it on the neon sign
That painted you in such a perfect light
If you're mad because it feels so right
Don't blame it on me
Just blame it on the steel guitar,
That slid you across the room into my arms
Kicking sawdust around that bar
Like we were on a movie screen
Blame it on the neon sign
That painted you in such a perfect light
If you're mad because it feels so right
Don't blame it on me
Yeah if you're mad because it feels so right
Don't blame it on me.
