You're mean to me. Why must you be mean to me?

C Bb9 Dm7 Am B7 Em7 A7sus4 A7-9 Dm7 D6

Gee, honey, it seems to me you love to see me cryin'

E6 A7sus4 A7 Dm7 B7 Em7
I don't know why I stay home

C#7 F#m7 Bm7 GM7
Each night, when you say you'll phone.

C Bb9 Dm7 Am B7
You don't and I'm left a - lone,

Em7 A7sus4 A7-9 Dm7 D6
Singin' the blues and sigh - in'.



Bridge:


D D9 D7 GM7 G6 D D9 D7 GM7 G6
You treat me cold - ly each day in the year;

C C9 Cdim Em+7 Em6
You al - ways scold me

C C9 Cdim E6 A7 A7+5
When - ev - er some - body is near, dear.


Dm7 B7 Em7 C#7 F#m7 Bm7 GM7
It must be great fun to be mean to me

C Bb9 Dm7 Am B7
You shouldn't, for can't you see

Em7 A7-9 D6 Fdim Em7 A7 A7+5 D6
What you mean to me?
