The entire song is simple chords with Dwight using hammer-on's for the base notes.
So the chords below correspond with the picking patterns above.

G+G
I blame the vain for what we wear,
        A minorAm     C majorC    G+G
And I blame the blind when we can't see.
      G+G
I blame it all on someone else,
          A minorAm  C majorC         G+G
Till there's nobody left, then I just blame me.
G+G
I blame her mind for the thoughts we share,
           A minorAm      C majorC    G+G
Whoa, and I blame her heart for the time we cared.
      G+G
I blame it all on how we used to be,
          A minorAm  C majorC          G+G
Till she's finally gone, then I'll just blame me.

        D MajorD
So go ahead and blame,
  C majorC       G+G
Anything that you want.
             D MajorD
'Cause it all ends up the same,
     C majorC                  D MajorD
When everything that you've been claiming is wrong.

Instrumental Break: G+G G MajorG A minorAm C majorC G+G

              D MajorD
Oh and don't you know that blame,
  C majorC      G+G
Is always never enough.
             D MajorD
It just keeps you in the game,
     C majorC              D MajorD
Till you've only got yourself left to bluff.

        G+G
So I blame the vain for what we wear,
             A minorAm     C majorC    G+G
Yeah, and I'll blame the blind when we can't see.
       G+G
I'll blame it all on someone else,
          A minorAm  C majorC          G+G
Till there's nobody left, then I'll just blame me.
          A minorAm   C majorC        G+G
Till she's fin'lly gone, then I just blame me
