I could say it's all her fault 
She never had any patience at all 
I'm a complicated guy 
And she didn't try to understand 
I could claim I had nothing to do 
With the fact I'm lonesome and blue 
But that wouldn't be true 
I'm a self made man 
Yeah I'm the one that fooled around 
And let the one who loved me down 
She had more of me than she could stand 
I blamed everyone but me 
But now that it's too late I see 
Nobody helped me get to where I am 
I'm a self made man 
I could blame it on the way I was raised 
Or I could say I was just to afraid 
To lay my heart in somebody else's hands 
I could always make one more excuse 
But in the end what's the use 
I might as well face 
I'm a self made man 
Yeah I'm the one that fooled around 
And let the one who loved me down 
She had more of me than she could stand 
I blamed everyone but me 
But now that it's too late I see 
Nobody helped me get to where I am 
I'm a self made man 
Oh I blamed everyone but me 
But now that its to late I see 
Nobody helped me get to where I am 
I'm a self made man 
Self made man 
Self made man 
I can't blame anybody but me
