written and recorded by Willie Nelson
C                        F           C                    G7
As you sit there in your loneliness  confused as you must be
    F            C                 G7
I'm sure a dozen questions come to mind
       C                    F           C                         G7
And if you're wondering why I left you  after all you've done for me
  F                    G7              C
I guess you'll have to blame it on the times
    F                           C
The many times you had your way no matter what the cost
    F                                   C                 G7
And the many times you took for granted love you now have lost
       C             F                C            G7
And if I've hurt you darling  I don't mean to be unkind
  F                    G7              C
I guess you'll have to blame it on the times
                     F               C                G7
That small conceited world of yours  could never understand
     F                C              G7
That to want to stand alone is not a crime
    C               F           C                 G7
And if for one time in my life  I'm acting like a man
  F                    G7              C
I guess you'll have to blame it on the times
F                            C
Blame it on the many times a hiding place I'd seek
F                                   C                 G7
Afraid to say what's on my mind and ashamed for being weak
      C           F       C                  G7
So if at last I'm seeing  after so long being blind
  F                      G7              C
I suppose you'll have to blame it on the times
