Listen to the CD for strumming patterns. Verse 1:
           Am            G                   C
There's an empty place inside that is hurting me

  Am                                    Fmaj7
A place that keeps my heart out on it's own

  Fmaj7                       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                                     Fmaj7
A broken bridge of lines that just won't come

   Fmaj7                                  Am
An empty lung that won't give the wind to speak at me

               G       Fmaj7  [riff]
How far can it be from home
Chorus 1:
C                    Am          Fmaj7           
 Why you gotta be so mean to me

C                                   Am          [riff]
 Why you gotta drag me down just to make me see

C                                     Am             Fmaj7
 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                                 Fmaj7
A crowd of faceless strangers moving on

  Fmaj7                          Am
A feeling that you left it all behind you now

                G                Fmaj7 [riff]
That it doesn't hurt somehow to know
Chorus 2:
C                    Am          Fmaj7           
 Why you gotta be so mean to me

C                                   Am          [riff]
 Why you gotta drag me down just to make me see

C                                     Am             Fmaj7
 You know I don't listen good and I'm always in need

C                    Am        G         Fmaj7 [riff]
 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                          Fmaj7
Let the pages yellow in the sun

 Fmaj7                              Am
Show them that you're not afraid to let them see

        G                Fmaj7 [riff]
How far you can be from home
Chorus:
C                    Am          Fmaj7           
 Why you gotta be so mean to me

C                                   Am          [riff]
 Why you gotta drag me down just to make me see

C                                     Am             Fmaj7
 You know I don't listen good and I'm always in need

C                            Am        [riff]
 Why you gotta be so fuckin' mean to me

C                            Am     [riff]  
Why you gotta be, why you gotta be

C                            Am     [riff]  
Why you gotta be, why you gotta be

C                            Am     [riff]  
Why you gotta be, why you gotta be

C                   Am         [riff]  
Why you gotta be so mean to me
