Taylor Swift - "Mean"

Capo 2 fret

Verse 1

Bm A
You, with your words like knives
G
And swords and weapons that you use against me,
Bm A G
You, have knocked me off my feet again,
G
Got me feeling like I’m nothing.
Bm A G
You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard
G
Calling me out when I’m wounded.ueaa
Bm A G-ee-
You, pickin’ on the weaker man.a,,.-

Pre-Chorus
A G
Well you can take me down,
G A
With just one single blow.
G
But you don’t know, what you don’t know,

Chorus
D A G
Someday, I’ll be living in a big old city,
D A G
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean.
D A 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.
G D A-D
Why you gotta be so mean?

Verse 2
Bm A
You, with your switching sides,
G
And your walk by lies and your humiliation
Bm A G
You, have pointed out my flaws again,
G Bm
As if I don’t already see them.
Bm A
I walk with my head down,
G
Trying to block you out cause I’ll never impress you
Bm A G
I just wanna feel okay again.

Pre-Chorus
A G
I bet you got pushed around,
G A
Somebody made you cold,
A
But the cycle ends right now,
G
You can’t lead me down that road,
G
You don’t know, what you don’t know

Chorus
D A G
Someday, I’ll be, living in a big old city,
D A G
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean.
D A 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.
G D A-D G
Why you gotta be so mean?

Bridge
A
And I can see you years from now in a bar,
G A
Talking over a football game,
A G
With that same big loud opinion but,
G A
Nobody’s listening,
A G D G
Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things,
A G
Drunk and grumbling on about how I can’t sing.
D Bm
But all you are is mean,
G D
All you are is mean.
D A G A
And a liar, and pathetic, and alone in life,
D A G
And mean, and mean, and mean, and mean

Outro
( No Chords )
But someday, I’ll be, living in a big old city,
( No Chords )
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean. Yeah,
D A 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.
G
Why you gotta be so ?
D A G
Someday, I’ll be, living in a big old city,
D A G
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean. Yeah,
D A 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.
G D
Why you gotta be so mean?
