 [INTRO]


 . 
 [VERSE ONE]
  C#m             B
 You, with your words like knives
        A 
 And swords and weapons that you use against me
   C#m          B               A 
 You have knocked me off my feet again

 Got me feelin' like a nothing
  C#m                B                     A 
 You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard
   A 
 Calling me out when I'm wounded
   C#m     B                   A 
 You, pickin' on the weaker man
 
 [PRE CHORUS]
   B                      E 
 Well, you can take me down
   E               A   B 
 With just one single blow
      A 
 But you don't know what you don't know

 [CHORUS]
 E        B         C#m                  A 
 Someday, I'll be livin' in a big ole city
      E          B                A 
 And all you're ever gonna be is mean
   E       B      C#m                         A
 Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
      E           B             A 
 And all you're ever gonna be is mean
    A                    E
 Why you gotta be so mean?
 
 [VERSE TWO]
  C#m               B 
 You, with your switching sides
          A 
 And your wildfire lies and your humiliation
  C#m          B               A
 You have pointed out my flaws again

 As if I don't already see them
    C#m           B                          A 
 I walk with my head down, trying to block you out
     C#m
 'Cause I'll never impress you
   C#m       B                A
 I just wanna feel okay again

 [PRE CHORUS]
                       E 
 I bet you got pushed around
          A         B 
 Somebody made you cold
   B 
 But the cycle ends right now
      A
 'Cause you can't lead me down that road
     A 
 And you don't know what you don't know

 E        B         C#m                  A 
 Someday, I'll be livin' in a big ole city
      E          B                A 
 And all you're ever gonna be is mean

 Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me

 Why you gotta be so mean?
 
 [BRIDGE]
            B 
 And I can see you years from now in a bar
  E                A      B 
 Talking over a football game
   B                                      E        A B 
 With that same big, loud opinion, but nobody's listening
   B                              C#m       B          A 
 Washed up and ranting about the same ole bitter things
    B                             C#m    B     A 
 Drunk and grumbling on about how I can't sing
 A                   E B C#m
 But all you are is mean
 
   A             E
 All you are is mean
       B            C#m
 And a liar, and pathetic
        A                 E 
 And alone in life, and mean
      B         C#m          A 
 And mean, and mean, and mean

 [CHORUS]
    E        B         C#m                  A 
 But Someday, I'll be livin' in a big ole city
      E          B                A 
 And all you're ever gonna be is mean
   E       B      C#m                         A
 Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
      E           B             A 
 And all you're ever gonna be is mean
    A                    E
 Why you gotta be so mean?

 Someday, I'll be livin' in a big ole city

 (Why you gotta be so mean?)

 And all you're ever gonna be is mean

 (Why you gotta be so mean?)

 Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me

 (Why you gotta be so mean?)

 And all you're ever gonna be is mean

 Why you gotta be so mean?
