Capo 4th fret

C majorC
You,
     G+G
With your words like knives
   A minorAm                  FF
and swords and weapons that you use against me
C majorC
You,
    G+G           FF
Have knocked me off my feet again
FF
Got me feelin' like i'm nothing
C majorC
You,
      G+G
With your voice like nails
      A minorAm
on a chalkboard
         FF
Callin' me out when i'm wounded
C majorC
You,
G+G           FF
Pickin' on the weaker man

Pre-Chorus
G+G
Well you can take me down
FF           G+G
with just one single blow.
G+G          FF
But you don't know what you don't know.

Chorus
C majorC    G+G
Someday I'll be
A minorAm           FF
Livin' in a big ole' city
C majorC       G+G        FF
And all your ever gonna be is mean.
C majorC    G+G
Someday I'll be
A minorAm             FF
Big enough so you can't hit me
C majorC       G+G         FF
And all your ever gonna be is mean.
(stop)
Why you gotta be so mean?

C majorC G+G A minorAm FF

Verse 2
C majorC
You,
G+G
With your switching sides
   A minorAm
and your wild fire lies
     FF
and your humiliation
C majorC
You,
G+G           A minorAm
Have pointed out my flaws again
FF
As if I don't already see them.
C majorC      G+G
I walk with my head down
A minorAm
Try to block you out
FF
Cause I'll never impress you
C majorC
I,
    G+G        FF
Just wanna feel okay again

Pre-Chorus
G+G
I'll bet you got pushed around,
FF
Somebody made you cold,
G+G
But the cycle ends right now,
G+G          FF
Cause you can't lead me down that road
G+G          FF
And you don't know what you don't know

Chorus

Someday I'll be
A minorAm           FF
Livin' in a big ole' city

And all your ever gonna be is mean.
C majorC    G+G
Someday I'll be
A minorAm             FF
Big enough so you can't hit me
C majorC       G+G         FF
And all your ever gonna be is mean.

G+G
And I can see years from now
in a bar

Talkin' over a football game

With that same big loud opinion

But nobody's listening

Washed up and ranting
      C majorC     A minorAm    FF
About the same ole' bitter things.

How I can't sing.
