(Gary Rossington - Johnny Van Zant - Rickey Medlocke - Hughie Thomasson)

Here I sit all by myself

Wonderin' how she could put our love on a shelf

A crowd of people, they pass me by

But all I can do is hang my head and cry



Blame it on a sad song in the night

I don't want anyone but you to make it right

Blame it on a sad song in the night

Well, it's an old familiar feelin'

Girl, it's got my heart reelin'

Don't want to hear a sad song in the night

Anymore



I know when we first started out

I was your only love and you had no doubt

But songs of the heart don't last forever

But don't you give up on love 'cause you never say never



Blame it on a sad song in the night

I don't want anyone but you to make it right

Blame it on a sad song in the night

Well, it's an old familiar feelin'

Girl, it's got my heart reelin'

Don't want to hear a sad song in the night

Anymore



'Cause not a day goes by that I don't think about you

Oh, moment to moment, I get lost in time

And many years from now when I hear that song come on the radio

All those feelings will come back to haunt me

My heart will let me know



Blame it on a sad song in the night

I don't want anyone but you to make it right

Blame it on a sad song in the night

Well, it's an old familiar feelin'

Girl, it's got my heart reelin'

Don't want to hear a sad song anymore



Blame it on a sad song

You can blame it on a sad song, baby

Blame it on, blame it on a sad song
