Mean

	  		
Verse 1
 
C# B A 
You, with your words like knives and swords and weapons that you use against me 
C# B A 
You, have knocked me off my feet again got me feeling like I'm nothing 
C# B A 
You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard, calling me out when I'm wounded 
C# B A 
You, pickin' on the weaker man 

Pre-Chorus 1:
 
B C# A 
Well, you can take me down with just one single blow 
B C# A 
But you don't know what you don't know 


E  B C# A 
Someday I'll be living in a big old city 
E B A 
And all you're ever gonna be is mean 
E B C# A 
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me 
C#  B A 
And all you're ever gonna be is mean 
A			E  D/E 
Why you gotta be so mean? 


Verse 2
 
C# B A 
You, with your switching sides and your walk-by lies and your humiliation 
C# B A 
You, have pointed out my flaws again as if I don't already see them 
C# B A  
I'll walk with my head down trying to block you out 'cause I'll never impress you 
C# B A  
I just wanna feel okay again 


Pre-Chorus 2:
  
B C# A  
I'll bet you got pushed around, somebody made you cold 
B C# A  
But the cycle ends right now 'cause you can't lead me down that road 
A 
And you don't know what you don't know 

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

Bridge 2:
 
E  B C# A 
But all you are is mean 
E  B C# A 
All you are is mean and a liar and pathetic and a f***ing whore 
E  B C# A  
And mean, and mean, and mean, and mean 
  
Chorus 2:
   
But someday I'll be living in a big old city 
And all you're ever gonna be is mean, yeah
