(Verse 1) 
 
D#m             D#m9/C# Bmaj7 
Your words are like knives 
 
D#m                D#m9/C# Bmaj7 
They peel my skin and pierce my soul 
 
D#m                  Bmaj7 
Your body will burn tonight 
 
D#m                    D#m9/C# Bmaj7   
Though your heart may still remain cold 
 
(Chorus) 
 
D#m9/C#*            B 
And I will blame myself 
 
D#m9/C#*            B 
And I will blame myself 
 
D#m9/C#*                              B 
For holding onto what i hoped would keep you by my side. 
 
D#m9/C#*        B 
I will blame myself 
 
(Verse 2) 
 
D#m         D#m9/C# Bmaj7    
The sheets are stained with 
 
D#m       D#m9/C# Bmaj7 
Memories of    your soft kiss 
 
D#m           D#m9/C# Bmaj7 
Now this is all I  have 
 
D#m            D#m9/C# Bmaj7 
Paper and pen to remember you with 
 
(Chorus) 
 
D#m9/C#*            B 
And I will blame myself 
 
D#m9/C#*            B 
And I will blame myself 
 
D#m9/C#*                              B 
For holding onto what i hoped would keep you by my side. 
 
D#m9/C#*        B 
I will blame myself 
 
(Outro) 
 
F#     B 
Can I have you? 
 
F#     B 
Can I have you? 
 
F#     B 
Can I have you? 
 
F#     B         D#m9/C#* 
Can i have you?
