Interesting facts and trivia about Nobody To Blame. By Songfacts®.

Chris Stapleton has been kicked out of his home by his wife. She broke his fishing rods, poured his whisky down the drain and changed the locks. However, Stapleton is taking the blame for the breakup and though he doesn't outline exactly where he went wrong, the lyrical focus on his hobbies and toys indicate the singer cared more for them than having a good woman.

Chris Stapleton wrote the song with: Barry Bales, who is the American long time bass player for Alison Krauss and Union Station. Bluegrass songwriter and vocalist Ronnie Bowman, who's other songwriting credits include country #1s for Brooks & Dunn ("It's Getting Better All the Time") and Kenny Chesney ("Never Wanted Nothing More"). Stapleton recalled: "I have a little shed out behind my house. It's about 10x10 and on occasion I write songs out there. I got together one afternoon with Barry Bales and Ronnie Bowman. I think we wrote three songs that day. This was one of the three."

Chris Stapleton made his Saturday Night Live debut on January 16, 2016 performing this song, along with another Traveller track, "Parachute." Stapleton was joined by his backing singer wife, Morgane, harmonica player Mickey Raphael and producer Dave Cobb.
