Tom: A
Introdução:
A
I guess you have to have a problem
E A
If you want to invent a contraption
first you cause a train wreck
E
then you put me in traction
A
well first came an action
And then a reaction
D
But you can't switch around
For your own satisfaction
A
Well you burnt my house down
E A
And then got mad at my reaction
A E
Well in every complicated situation
A
now there's human relation
making sense of it all
E
Takes a whole lot of concentration
A
Well you can't blame a baby
For her pregnant ma
D
then it feels one of these
aren't whole lotta applaused
A E A
that you just can't take the effect and make it the cause
D
Well you can't take the effect
And make it the cause
A
I didn't rob a bank
because you made up the law
D
Blame me for robbing peter
Don't you blame paul
A
I ain't the reason that you gave me
E A
No reason to return your call
You built a house of cards
E
And got shocked when you saw them fall
A
Well I ain't saying I'm innocent
In fact the reverse
D
But if you're heading to the grave
ya don't blame the hearse
A E
You're like a little girl yelling at her brother
A
Cos you lost his ball
A
You keep blaming me for what you did
E A
but that ain't all
The way you clean up the wreck
E
Is enough to give one pause, yes
A
You seem to forget just how this song started
D
I'm reacting to you
because you left me broken hearted
A E A
you see you just can't take the effect and make it the cause
D
Well you can't take the effect
And make it the cause
A
I didn't rob a bank
because you made up the law
D
Blame me for robbing peter
Don't you blame paul
