Strum
D-DU-UDU
You, with your words like knives and swords
And weapons that you use against me
You, have knocked me off my feet again
Got me feelin' like a nothin'
You, with your voice like nails on a chalk board
Callin' me out when I'm wounded
You, pickin' on the weaker man
Well you can take me down with just one single blow
But you don't know, what you don't know...
Someday I'll be livin' in a big ol' city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
You, with your swithching sides and
Your wild fire lies and your humiliation
You, have pointed out my flaws again
As if I don't already see them
I walk with my head down
Tryin' to block you out 'cause I never impress you
I just wanna feel okay again
I bet you got pushed around
Somebody made you cold
But the cycle ends right now 'cause
You can't lead me down that road
And you don't know what you don't know
Someday I'll be livin' in a big ol' city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
And I can see you years from now in a bar
Talkin' over a football game
With that same big loud opinion
But no one's listening
Washed up and ranting about the
* *once * (fingerpicking)
Same old bitter things
Drunk and grumblin' all about how I can't sing
But all you are is mean
All you are is mean and a liar and pathetic
And alone in life and mean, and mean, and mean, and mean
*Palm mute*
But someday I'll be livin in a big ol' city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean, yeah
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so...Someday
I'll be livin in a big ol' city (why ya gotta be so mean)
And all you're ever gonna be is mean (why ya gotta be so mean)
Someday I'll be livin in a big ol' city (why ya gotta be so mean)
* *once * *
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
