MEAN - Taylor Swift
Capo 2
[Verse]
Bm A G
You, with your words like knives and swords
G
And weapons that you use against me
Bm A G
You, have knocked me off my feet again
G
Got me feelin' like a nothin'
Bm A G
You, with your voice like nails on a chalk board
G
Callin' me out when I'm wounded
Bm A G
You, pickin' on the weaker man
[Pre-Chorus]
A D G A
Well you can take me down with just one single blow
G
But you don't know, what you don't know
[Chorus]
D A Bm G
Someday I'll be livin in a big ol' city
D A G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
D A Bm 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
N.C. D
Why you gotta be so mean?
C slide in to D
[Verse]
Bm A
You, with your swithching sides and
G G
Your wild fire lies and your humiliation
Bm A G
You, have pointed out my flaws again
G N.C.
As if I don't already see them
Bm A
I walk with my head down
G
tryin' to block you out
G
'cause I never impress you
Bm A G G
I just wanna feel okay again
[Pre-Chorus]
A
I bet you got pushed around
D G A
Somebody made you cold
A
But the cycle ends right now 'cause
G
You can't lead me down that road
G
And you don't know what you don't know
[Chorus]
D A Bm G
Someday I'll be livin in a big ol' city
D A G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
D A Bm 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
Why you gotta be so mean?
C slide in to D
[Instrumental]
G (2 measures)
[Bridge]
A
And I can see you years from now in a bar
D G A
Talkin' over a football game
A
With that same big loud opinion
D G A
But no one's listening
A
Washed up and ranting about the
D A G
same old bitter things
A D A G
Drunk and rumblin' all about how I can't sing
N.C. D A
But all you are is mean
G D A D
All you are is mean, and a liar, and pathetic
G D A D G
And alone in life and mean, and mean, and mean, and mean
[Chorus]
D A Bm G
Someday I'll be livin in a big ol' city
D A G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean...yeahh
D A Bm 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
Why you gotta be so.. Someday
A Bm G
I'll be livin in a big ol' city
D A G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
D A Bm 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
Why you gotta be so mean
