The Mountain Goats – Pseudothyrum Song (Ukulele)

 C           F            G
Why do you treat me this way?

 C              F      G                       
And why do you try so hard to break my spirit?

          Dm                G                  C
I think someone was mean to you when you were little

              F
That's what I think

F          G                C
I think someone was mean to you

C            F             G        
Why do you cling to such petty points of contention?

C                   F                          G
And why don't you allow me one or two small victories now and then?

            Dm                G                         C
I think someone was mean to you when you didn't deserve it

             F
That's what I think

F         G                  C
I think someone was mean to you

   F C F
But I

               G
I am not that guy, can you get that straight?

C                             F
I am a completely different person

         Am               G
From the one you have in mind

C             F                      G         C
Why do you stand by the things you say long after

                   F               G
You don't mean to hurt anybody anymore?

F                            G
I think someone was mean to you

C                   F                   C
For a long, long time, that's what I think

            G                C
I think someone was mean to you
