for the last part here where you have stars next to your chords i think this could be nice:
G Dm Am F
drunk and rumbling on about how i can't sing

Just a possibility though. I have confidence that you'll figure it out because so far it's really cute and I cant wait to see the finished product! Splendid job :)

About this song: Mean

This song is rumored to be directed at blogger Bob Lefsetz, although nothing was officially confirmed. In addition, it also verses about the harsh criticism Taylor has received since her performance at the 52nd Annual Grammy awards, with Stevie Nicks, considered by many subpar. Taylor Swift also explains the story behind "Mean" on her official website:
"The song "Mean" is about, well, when you do what I do, which is you put yourself out there for a lot of people to say whatever they want about it, there are a million different opinions from a million different people.
