Difficulty: Novice


  D            A     G
You, with your words like knives, and swords and weapons that you use

against me

  D    A              G
You, have knocked me off my feet again, got me feeling like a nothing
D         A            G
You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard

calling me out when I'm wounded

 D     A       G
You, picking on the weaker man
A            G             A
Well you can take me down with just one single blow, But you don't

know what you don't know and

D    A       Em G
Someday, I'll be living in a big ol' city,
D       A   G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.
D    A     Em     G
Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me,
D        A  G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.
          D  G  D
Why you gotta be so mean?

D  A              G
You, with your switching sides and your wildfire lies and your

humiliation
D  A         G
You, have pointed out my flaws again, as if I don't already see them,
D   A            G
I walk with my head down trying to block you out 'cause I'll never impress

you,

D A  G
I just wanna feel okay again.
A               G
I'll bet you got pushed around, somebody made you cold,
A
But the cycle ends right now 'cause you wont take me down that road.

But you don't know what you don't know.

D    A      Em   G
Someday, I'll be living in a big ol' city,
D       A     G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.
D    A    Em        G
Someday, I'll be big enough so that you can't hit me,
D       A     G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.
D             A G D A G
Why you gotta be so mean?

Woah

A                    G
And I can see you years from now in a bar talking over a football game,
A               G
With that same big loud opinion but nobody's listening,
A             G      Em
Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things,
A             G  Em
Drunk and rumbling on about how I can't sing,

D  A    G
All you are is mean.
D  A    G   D   A    G                 D
All you are is mean, and a liar, and pathetic, and alone in life and mean.
A   G   G
And mean, and mean,

D  (Just Sung)
But someday, I'll be living in a big ol' city,
            G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.

Yeah, yeah.

D    A    G
Someday, I'll be living in a big ol' city,
D    A    G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.

Why ya gotta be so

D    A    G
Someday, I'll be living in a big ol' city,
D    A    G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.

Yeah

D    A   G
Some Day I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
D    A    G
And all your ever gonna be is mean
D
Why ya gotta be so mean
