 4x's times
   I think I've already lost  you
 I think you're already gone
   I think I'm finally  scared now
  You  think I'm  weak - but I think you're wrong
   I think you're already leaving
 Feels like your hand  is on the door
   I thought this place  was an empire
  now  I'm relaxed  - I can't be sure
 This next part you can either tab this through it or play the chords
(listen to the song as he says "I think your so mean" for the timing)
it starts as he says "mean" after "much" he ends playing all 3
1--------5----------- ......--5--|
2-----5------5------- ......--5--|
3--7----------------- ......--7--|
 I think you're so mean  - I think we should try -
 I think I could need -  this in my life
 and I  think I'm scared  - I think too much
 I know  it's wrong it's a problem I'm dealing
 If you're gone  - maybe it's time to go home
 There's an awful  lot of breathing room
 But I can hardly move
   If you're gone - baby you need to come home  (come home)
  Cuz there's a little bit  of something me
   In everything  in you
 (at "in you" go back to the intro Tab. You can play the tab through all the way to "more
you'd mind" or play the chords)

 play 2x's
   I bet you're hard to get  over
 I bet the room  just  won't shine
   I bet my hands I can  stay here
  I  bet you need  - more than you mind
 This next part you can either tab this through it or play the chords
(listen to the song as he says "I think your so mean" for the timing)

 I think you're so mean  - I think we should try -
 I think I could need -  this in my life
 and I  think I'm scared  - I think too much
 I can't relate  and that's a problem I'm feeling
 If you're gone  - maybe it's time to go home
 There's an awful  lot of breathing room
