[Verse 1]
G                                     C          G
The air was so thick, well. you could cut with a knife
        D           G
And the night stood still
                        C         G
Never felt like this in all of my life
G        D       G
It never felt so real
C
I can't believe
    D                             F    C
The way my heart melts with every beat


[Chorus]
G           C   D
Blame it on the heat
C             G
   It happens   when we meet
            C   D              C
Blame it on the sweet southern nights
F       C         G    G
  Blame it on the heat


[Verse 2]
                          C         G
Baby, when we touch, uncontrollable fire comes over us
                     C         G
Why we create such a burning desire Is mysterious
      C
We go out of our minds
       D                       F    C
As the temperature climbs by degrees


[Chorus]
G           C   D
Blame it on the heat
C             G
   It happens   when we meet
            C   D              C
Blame it on the sweet southern nights
F       C         G
  Blame it on the heat
F  C               G
   Blame it on the heat
