Loveless Patty

Loveless Patty - Blame It On Your Heart guitar tab

Blame it on your Heart

by Harlan Howard & Kostas

transcribed by E. Gatley

I pulled this from the movie "Thing called Love", but after searching

around, apparently Patti Loveless and others do the song. In the movie, at

about 55 minutes in, River Phoenix and Samantha Mathis do the song in Db.

At the end of the movie, Deborah Allen does the song in Ab. I wrote it out

in A, simply because it's better for my voice and it can be played mostly

in the open position. Use a Chuck Berry - type driving rhythm.

E

A

You got a thing or two to learn about me baby

E

'Cause I ain't taking it no more and I don't mean maybe

You don't know right from wrong

The love we had is gone

So blame it on your lying cheating cold deadbeating

A

two timing double dealing mean mistreating loving heart

Well all I wanted was to be your one and only

But all I ever got from you was being lonely

Now that is laid to rest

'Cause you have failed the test

Hey blame it on your lying cheating cold deadbeating

two timing double dealing mean mistreating loving heart

D

Are you headed for a heartache, oh yeah

A

Gonna get a bad break, oh yeah

D

Made a bad mistake, oh yeah

B E

Well you never gonna find another love like mine

Well someone's gonna do you like you done me honey

And when she does you like she'll do you well it ain't funny

You need some sympathy

But don't be calling me

Hey blame it on your lying cheating cold deadbeating

two timing double dealing mean mistreating loving heart

The Deborah Allen version repeats from:

--> Are you headed for a heartache ...

to the end, then repeats from:

--> You need some sympathy ...

to the end, then repeat that last line to finish it:

--> Hey blame it ...
