(Verse 1)
(D)Woah, wasn't (F)ready for this
Bout (G)knocked me on my back, how (F)hard it hit
Like, (D)damn

And I'm (D)buzzing like that (F)cold beer sign (G) (F)

(Chorus)
(D)Blame it on the bartender (F)pouring it strong
(G)Blame it on the band playing (F)two-step songs
(G)Blame it on the dance floor (F)calling your name
(G)Tan legs spinning, just (F)doing your thing
Yeah (D)girl, it's true
I'm (F)stuck on you, like them (G)rhinestones on your (F)boots
The (D)way you move, what's a (F)country boy to do
And you (G)can't blame me
The blame's on you (D) (F) (G) (F)
The blame's on you (D) (F) (G) (F)

(Verse 2)
(D)Hey, let me (F)buy you a drink
(G)Whatcha say we ride that te-(F)quila train
I said (D)oh
See, you're (F)ready to roll
(G)Out on the dance floor, (NC)dropping it low
(D)Girl, it's almost (F)closing time (G)
And I bet your (D)lips just taste like (F)salt and (G)lime (like salt and lime)

(Post Chorus)
(D)Blame it on the bartender (F)pouring it strong
(G)Blame it on the band playing (F)two-step songs
(D)Blame it on the dance floor (F)calling your name
(G)Tan legs spinning, just (F)doing your thing
Yeah (D)girl, it's true
I'm (F)stuck on you, like them (G)rhinestones on your (F)boots
The (D)way you move, what's a (F)country boy to do
And you (G)can't blame me
The blame's on (D)you (F) (G) (F)
The blame's on (D)you (F) (G) (F)

(Post-Chorus)
The blame's on (D)you,
Your hands all (F)over me
(G)2 am, last call, (F)time to leave
(D)Silhouettes tangled in the (F)light of the moon
(G) No, you can't blame (C)me
