Verse 1
C#C# BB A augmentedA
You, with your words like knives and swords and weapons that you use against me
C#C# BB A augmentedA
You, have knocked me off my feet again got me feeling like I'm nothing

You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard, calling me out when I'm wounded
C#C# BB A augmentedA
You, pickin' on the weaker man

I just wanna feel okay again

BB A augmentedA
BB C#C# A augmentedA
And I can see you years from now in a bar, talking over a football game
BB C#C# A augmentedA
With that same big loud opinion but nobody's listening
BB C#C# C#C# BB A augmentedA
Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things
BB C#C# C# BB A augmentedA
Drunk and rambling on about how I can't sing
Bridge 2

And mean, and mean, and mean, and mean

And all you're ever gonna be is mean, yeah
