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
