D           G            A
Why do you treat me this way?
D G A
 D              G      A                       
And why do you try so hard to break my spirit?
D G A
          Em                A                  D
I think someone was mean to you when you were little
              G
That's what I think
G          A                D
I think someone was mean to you
D G A
D G A
D            G             A        
Why do you cling to such petty points of contention?
D G A
D                   G                          A
And why don't you allow me one or two small victories now and then?
D G A
            Em                A                         D
I think someone was mean to you when you didn't deserve it
             G
That's what I think
G         A                  D
I think someone was mean to you
   G D G
But I
               A
I am not that guy, can you get that straight?
D                             G
I am a completely different person
         Bm               A
From the one you have in mind
D             G                      A         D
Why do you stand by the things you say long after
                   G               A
You don't mean to hurt anybody anymore?
G                            A
I think someone was mean to you
D                   G                   D
For a long, long time, that's what I think
            A                D
I think someone was mean to you
