Great lift and hook in the chorus. LOVE the phrasing and the melody. WELL DONE, youngster!!

Great song ... Shame on me.  It surprised me because it has a 50's feel in the verse then the chorus moves to a temporary sound.  Really enjoyed the backing vocals in the chorus, too. Thanks, UncleBrent

I think it’s time, time to end this masquerade
Of pretending we’re okay
Waiting just deepens the pain
Putting off facing the shame

Shame on me for loving you with my eyes closed so tight
Shame on you for letting me think everything’s alright
You should have told me, I should have seen
Shame on you, shame on me

I can’t believe you let me learn from our friends
You’re not really over him
Making me look like a fool
Breaking my blind heart in two

Shame on me for loving you with my eyes closed so tight
Shame on you for letting me think everything’s alright
You should have told me, I should have seen
Shame on you, shame on me

Even if I’d known it all would end
I’d still love you all over again

Shame on me for loving you with my eyes closed so tight
Shame on you for letting me think everything’s alright
You should have told me, I should have seen
Shame on you, shame on me

You should have told me, I should have seen
Shame on you, shame on me

Shame On Me

You oughtta’ do what I’m tellin’ you - trust the Lord in what He can do
Listen while I tell you friend how to get through thick and thin

If you’re gonna cross the widest rivers – a man can ever cross
The water’s swift all the time – leaves a man in awe
But wading in just gets you wet – you gotta’ go deeper in
To cross the widest rivers – and get through thick and thin

Through thick and thin - If you gonna’ get what you want
Through thick and thin - you can learn to pray or don’t
You oughtta’ do what I’m telling you - Trust the Lord and what he can do
Let me tell you once again - how to get through thick and thin

If you’re gonna’ get to the top of the highest mountain – a man can ever climb
May be steep and out of reach – you don’t know till you try
Once you get up to the top – you can look down to where you’ve been
When you climb the highest mountain – and get through thick and thin

Through thick and thin - If you gonna’ get what you want
Through thick and thin - you can learn to pray or don’t
You oughtta’ do what I’m telling you - Trust the Lord and what he can do
Let me tell you once again - how to get through thick and thin

Thick and thin – through thick and thin
Your journey will be easier – if you listen to me friend

Through thick and thin - If you gonna’ get what you want
Through thick and thin - you can learn to pray or don’t
You oughtta’ do what I’m telling you - Trust the Lord and what he can do
Let me tell you once again - how to get through thick and thin

Through thick and thin - If you gonna’ get what you want
Through thick and thin - you can learn to pray or don’t
You oughtta’ do what I’m telling you - Trust the Lord and what he can do
Let me tell you once again - how to get through thick and thin

You oughtta’ do what I’m telling you - trust the Lord and what he can do
Come on along with me my friend – we’ll get through thick and thin

Shame On Me
