Submitted by: Lissie

Capo 4th fret

C
You,
         G
With your words like knives
      Am                                    F
and swords and weapons that you use against me
C
You,
       G                     F
Have knocked me off my feet again
F
Got me feelin' like i'm nothing
C

You,
           G
With your voice like nails
            Am
on a chalkboard
                 F
Callin' me out when i'm wounded
C
You,
G                      F
Pickin' on the weaker man

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

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

C G Am F

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

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

Chorus
C        G
Someday I'll be
Am                     F
Livin' in a big ole' city
C             G                F
And all your ever gonna be is mean.
C        G
Someday I'll be
Am                          F
Big enough so you can't hit me
C             G                 F
And all your ever gonna be is mean.
(stop)
