Don't Blame the Tune - Eleanor McEvoy

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

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
