Blame It On Me Tab

Blame It on Me by the Barenaked Ladies   The second master transcription by The Dins.  Overall, this is a great ditty, even though it can be considered the stereotypical and simple 3-chord song. I would recommend listening very carefully to the finger-picking patterns and strumming rhythms before learning this one based on the below tabs and chords progressions.   I am absolutely certain that these chords and notes are right on, so don't

worry about its accuracy.   Also, thanks again Atara.  BNL's rule.   -The Dins   Todd tdins@comcast.net   BLAME IT ON ME           (Bm7)             (Fm7)       EBGDAE            EBGDAE       x24232            242222   Intro:   Fm          E              Bm7 e ----------------|------------------|----------------- B -2----------2---|-----0-------0----|--2h3-------3---- G -2----------2---|-----1-------1----|--2---------2---- D -4----------4---|-----2-------2----|--2h4-----4------ A ---------4------|------------------|2-------2-------- E -2----2---------|0-------0---------|-----------------   e -----------------| B ----2h3-----2h3--| G ----2-------2----| D ----2h4-----2h4--| A -2-------2-------| E -----------------|   (Repeat Intro.)   Verse:   (The cord pattern for the Intro is repeated in a strumming pattern for both the verse and chorus in clear rhythmical articulation which you can pick by ear)  The below tab roughly illustrates the basic strumming pattern and related note variations.    Fm           E              Bm7 e -2--2---2-2-2---|0-0-0----0-0-0----|---------------- B -2--2---2-2-2---|0-0-0----0-0-0----|2-2h3--3-3-3---- G -2--2---2-2-2---|1-1-1----1-1-1----|2-2----2-2-2---- D -4--4---4-4-4---|2-2-2----2-2-2----|2-2h4--4-4-4---- A ----4---4-4-4---|2-2-2----2-2-2----|2------2-2-2---- E ----2---2-2-2---|------------------|----------------      (Bm7) e ----------------- B -2-2h3--3-3-3---- G -2-2----2-2-2---- D -2-2h4--4-4-4---- A -2------2-2-2---- E -----------------     Fm                E - - - -     Well here . . . . . . . . .  ..
