Dylan-esque medium tempo ballad about lost love
Likeke "Doc" Roberts the "Howlin' Haole", singer/songwriter
Story behind the song
She's gone, left, maybe he'll see her again. He blames her in his heart but claims, proudly, that SHE'S NOT TO BLAME.

SHE'S NOT TO BLAME

SHE'S NOT TO BLAME
IT'S JUST HER HEART THAT'S MADE OUT OF STONE
I GUESS I'LL HAVE TO GO IT ALONE
BUT SHE'S NOT TO BLAME
SHE'S JUST THE SAME
AS ANYBODY OUT ON THE ROAD
EVERYBODY TOLD ME SO
BUT SHE'S NOT TO BLAME
WELL, I COULD HAVE LISTENED,
I COULD HAVE TRIED
BUT THE MOONLIGHT SHONE OFF A BROKEN BOTTLE
HER STARLIGHT GOT IN MY EYES...
I LAID THE CLAIM
THOUGH I WAS TOLD MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TIMES
"DISASTER WILL SURELY FOLLOW"
OH, THAT'S JUST IN YOUR WORLD, I SAID, NOT MINE
SHE'S NOT TO BLAME
IT'S JUST SOMETHING I'VE GOT TO DO
I'LL JUST KEEP TRAVELING TRUE
SHE'S NOT TO BLAME
YOU CAN SEND ME LETTERS
IF THAT'S SOMETHING YOU WANT TO DO
I MIGHT WRITE YOU A POSTCARD
MAYBE I'LL BRING 'EM ALL BACK TO YOU
SHE'S NOT TO BLAME
SHE'S WAITING OUT THERE ON THE LINE
MAYBE I'LL GO OUT AND SEE HER SOMETIME
SHE'S NOT TO BLAME
SHE'S SOMEBODY’S FLAME
AND SHE BURNS WITH A FIRE SO BRIGHT
THAT CUTS LIKE A KNIFE THROUGH THE NIGHT
BUT SHE'S NOT TO BLAME.
NOW AND THEN WHEN I'M RUNNING
FROM MY PAST AND MEM'RIES OF YOU
I'LL TELL EVERYONE THAT I MEET
I DID ALL THAT I KNEW HOW TO DO…
SHE'S NOT TO BLAME
