So I just saw the "Mean" music video and the beginning verse is the
Bm instead of D so it's been switched:) The Bm/G in the chorus is now
gone as well, it's just a G all the way through (which is easier too!)
Taylor plays with no capo in the video and plays with a capo on 4
when playing live. IF you want to transpose this up or down 2 half
steps, go for it:) just click the transpose button above and move or
lose the capo! Also I'm keeping the Asus4 in the chorus, but just play
an A if you want;)
W/ Capo on 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 -once
But you don't know, what you don't know...
[Chorus]
D Asus4 G
Someday I'll be livin' in a big ol' city
D Asus4 G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
D Asus4 G
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
D Asus4 G......Stop
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
...... D C D -once
Why you gotta be so mean?
[Verse]
Bm A
You, with your switching sides and
G
Your wild fire lies and your humiliation
Bm A G
You, have pointed out my flaws again
-stop
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
I just wanna feel okay again
[Pre-Chorus 2]
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 -stop
And you don't know what you don't know
[Chorus]
D Asus4 G
Someday I'll be livin' in a big ol' city
D Asus4 G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
D Asus4 G
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
D Asus4 G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
D C D A G
Why you gotta be so mean?
[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* *once A* G*
Same old bitter things
A D* A* G*
Drunk and grumblin' all about how I can't sing
-no chord D A Bm
But all you are is mean
G D A Bm
All you are is mean...and a liar...and pathetic
G D A Bm G
And alone in life and mean, and mean, and mean, and mean
[Chorus]
(*Palm mute*)
D* Asus4* G*
But someday I'll be livin' in a big ol' city
D* Asus4* G* G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean, yeah--ah
D Asus4 G
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
D Asus4 G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
(G) D
Why you gotta be so...Someday
Asus4 G
I'll be livin in a big ol' city (why ya gotta be so mean)
D Asus4 G
And all you're ever gonna be is mean (why ya gotta be so mean)
D Asus4 G
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me (why ya gotta be so mean)
D* *once Asus4* G*
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
D*
Why you gotta be so mean?
