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.

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
