[Intro]
Em C D Am

[Verse 1]
Em                       C
I’m so tired of pretending
D                                  Am
Where’s my happy ending?
Em                                  C
I followed all the rules
D                     Am
I drew inside the lines
Em                                                  C
I never asked for anything that wasn’t mine
D                                  Am
I waited patiently for my time
Em                                  C
But when it finally came

D                  Am
He called her name
Em                                                  C
And now I feel this overwhelming pain
D                                  Am
I mean it’s in my veins
Em                                  C
I mean it’s in my brain
D                                                                   Am
My thoughts are running in a circle like a toy train
Em                                                                  C
I’m kinda like a perfect picture with a broken frame
D                                                  Am
I know exactly who to blame

[Chorus]
Em                                  C
I never thought of myself as mean
D
I always thought that I’d be the queen
Am                                                 Em
And there’s no in between
C
‘Cause if I can’t have that
D                                                  Am
Then I would be the leader of the dark
And the bad
Em                                  C
Now there’s a devil on my shoulder
D
Where the angels used to be
Am
And he’s calling me the queen

[Verse 2]
Em                                  C
Being nice was my pastime
D                                                  Am
But I’ve been hurt for the last time
Em                                                                  C
And I won’t ever let another person take advantage of me
D                                                  Am
The anger burns my skin, third-degree
Em                                                  C
Now my blood’s boiling hotter than a fiery sea
D                                  Am
There’s nobody getting close to me
Em
They’re gonna bow to the Evil Queen
C
Your nightmare’s my dream
D                                                  Am
Just wait until they fall to my wicked schemes

[Chorus]
Em                  C                  D                  Am
I never thought of myself as mean
Em                  C                  D                  Am
I always thought that I’d be the queen
Em
And there’s no in between
C
‘Cause if I can’t have that
D                                  Am
Then I would be the leader of the dark

And the bad
Em                                                  C
Now there’s a devil on my shoulder
D
Where the angels used to be
Am
And he’s calling me the queen
Em                                                                   C
And he’s calling me the queen of mean (calling me, calling me)
D                  Am                  Em                  C
The queen of mean (calling me, calling me)
D                                                  Am
The queen of mean (calling me, calling me)

[Verse 3]
Em
Something’s pulling me
C
It’s so magnetic
D
My body is moving
Am
Unsure where I’m headed
Em C
All of my senses have left me defenseless
D
This darkness around me
Am
Is promising vengeance
Em C
The price that I’m willing to pay is expensive
D
There’s nothing to lose
Am
When you’re lonely and friendless
Em C
So my only interest is showing this princess
D
That I am the queen
Am
And my reign will be endless (endless)

[Bridge]
Em C
I want what I deserve
D
I want to rule the world
Em C
Sit back and watch them learn
D
It’s finally my turn

[Chorus]
Em C D Am
If they want a villain for a queen
Em C D AM
I’m gonna be one like they’ve never seen
Em
I’ll show them what it means
C
Now that I am that
D Am
I will be the ruler of the dark and the bad
Em C
‘Cause the devil’s on my shoulder
D
Where the angels used to be
Am Em C
And he’s calling me the queen of mean (calling me, calling me)
The queen of mean (calling me, calling me)
I want what I deserve
