Elle King - I Told You I Was Mean: chords

   C
I lied to you
       E
I never cried for you
          Am
I swear that I tried to
            G
But I have better things to do
      C
Now you're on the road
           E
with your painful load
         Am
and the words I spoke
           G
left your big heart broken

Chorus:
F                   G
You know you still bother
       C       E        Am
because love is for the poor
F               G
So I left you knockin'
C        E        Am
outside my front door
F          G
You knew what this was
         C      E   Am
I don't want you anymore
F               G
I warned you before
F               G
I warned you before
F                 G                      C  E Am G
That i could've sworn, I told you I was mean

You were a sweet old thing and I was lonely
So I let you hold me for a limited time only
You see, you're nothing to me
'Cause I'll always be a bad, bad seed

Chorus:
F                   G
You know you still bother
       C       E        Am
because love is for the poor
F               G
So I left you knockin'
C        E        Am
outside my front door
F          G
You knew what this was
         C      E   Am
I don't want you anymore
F               G
I warned you before
F               G
I warned you before
F                 G                      C
That i could've sworn, I told you I was mean
        E        Am G
dum di dum, dum dum
                      C
I'm just a mean ol' thing'
        E        Am
dum di dum, dum dum

Ain't no use to bother because love is for the poor
So cut out your knockin' 'cause I will never come
I will never come to the door
You knew just what this was and
I don't want you forevermore
I warned you before, hey, baby
I warned you before, oh, honey
Well, I could've sworn I told you I was mean
Dum-de-dum, dum-dum
I'm just a mean old thing
Dum-de-dum, dum-dum
