Verse 1:
Am G C
There's an empty place inside that is hurting me
Am Fmaj9
A place that keeps my heart out on it's own
Fmaj9 Am
A disconnected function of my wretchedness
G Cadd9 G
That keeps me so hard pressed
Verse 2:
Am G C
It's a place where words are spoken you will never hear
Am Fmaj9
A broken bridge of lines that just won't come
Fmaj9 Am
An empty lung that won't give the wind to speak at me
G Fmaj9
How far can it be from home
Chorus 1:
C Am Fmaj9
Why you gotta be so mean to me
C Am Fmaj9
Why you gotta drag me down just to make me see
C Am Fmaj9
You know I don't listen good and I'm always in need
C Am G
Why you gotta be so mean to me
Verse 3:
Am G C
Do you think that it got up and left for good this time
Am Fmaj9
A crowd of faceless strangers moving on
Fmaj9 Am
A feeling that you left it all behind you now
G Fmaj9
That it doesn't hurt somehow to know
Chorus 2:
C Am Fmaj9
Why you gotta be so mean to me
C Am Fmaj9
Why you gotta drag me down just to make me see

You know I don't listen good and I'm always in need
C Am G Fmaj9
Why you gotta be so mean to me Yeah heah heah
Solo (same chords and riff as chorus)
Verse 4:
Am G C
So open up the book that you keep deep inside
Am Fmaj9
Let the pages yellow in the sun
Fmaj9 Am
Show them that you're not afraid to let them see
G Fmaj9
How far you can be from home
Chorus:
C Am Fmaj9
Why you gotta be so mean to me
C Am Fmaj9
Why you gotta drag me down just to make me see
C Am Fmaj9
You know I don't listen good and I'm always in need
C Am Fmaj9
Why you gotta be so fuckin' mean to me
C Am Fmaj9
Why you gotta be Why you gotta be
C Am Fmaj9
Why you gotta be Why you gotta be

Why you gotta be Why you gotta be
C Am Fmaj9
Why you gotta be so mean to me
