Tabbed by B. Cozz This is the progression for most of the song G It wasn't me, I wasn't there A I was just watching from over here Am D G D G And besides, I couldn't afford the bus fare In Hollywood and Washington They shake and smile through the harm they've done But it's your little red wagon and you gotta pull it G#dim Am C It'll take a lifetime to clear your name G G/F# Am C D Under the bridges of fame it's always nighttime It wasn't me, I wasn't there I was stone drunk, it isn't clear And it doesn't count cause I don't care The years transform my memories Of all the countless decades of grief It was cut and run in '91 G#dim Am C Put yourselves in a straightjacket G G/F# But when you plead insane Am C It's no cheaper than humiliation D That's free... G Am That's free... C D That's free... G I've gone and quit my worshipping A Of the false gods and golden sins Am D G D G Cause we've made love in the Tower of Babel and it fell down It wasn't me, I wasn't there That was not my love affair That is not my lover, that's not even my friend It wasn't me, I wasn't there I was stone drunk, it isn't clear And it doesn't count cause I don't care Am C But I use a pop song to clear my name G F#/G Am Under the bridges of fame it's always nighttime C D G I'll end with a closure and say goodnight
