Lyrics
Verse 1
I search the ground for plants that heal
The grand alliance hasn't bought me a deal
His finest hour has come and it's gone
It's going to take my whole life just to stop doing it wrong
Oh
Chorus
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
So blame me for what I cannot finish
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
My whole life I thought I was an op
G+G

But I'm not (go to tab for this line)
Verse 2
Teaspoon in the morning, a tablespoon at night
My fortunes never made sense so soon neither did I
I come to you wrapped up in a rug with disguise
All this shocking behaviour never once caught your eye
Chorus
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
So blame me for what I cannot finish
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
My whole life I thought I was an op
G+G

But I'm not (go to tab for this line)
Bridge (go to tab)
If there was something I won
Nobody told me I won
Chorus
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
So blame me for what I cannot finish
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
My whole life I thought I was an op
