Start Jamming...
[F#] [Bm] Baby, [A] you understand me now
[G]
If sometimes [F#] you see that I'm mad
[Bm]
Don't you know no one alive [A] can always be an angel
When [G] everything goes wrong [F#] you see some bad
But [D] I'm just a soul whose [G] intentions are [F#m] good
[F#] Oh Lord, [A#] please don't [Bm] let me be misunderstood
[Em] You [Bm] know sometimes, baby, [A] I'm so carefree
[G] With a joy that's [F#] hard to hide
[Bm] And then sometimes again it seems [A] that all I hurry
[G] And then you're bound to see my [F#] other side
[D] But I'm just a soul [G] whose intentions are good
[F#] Oh Lord, please [C#] don't let [Bm] me be misunderstood
[A] I [G] [A] seem edgy, [G] I want [A] you to know
I [G] never mean [A] to take it [D] out on [Bm] you
[A] [G] Life [A] has its problems [G] and [A] I get more than my share
[G] But that's one thing I never mean [F#] to do
Cause I love you
[Bm]
Oh [A] baby, I'm just human
[G] Don't you know I have [F#] thoughts like anyone
[Bm] Sometimes I find myself [A] alone
Some regretting, some little [G] foolish thing
Some [F#] simple thing that I have done
But [D]
I'm just a soul whose [G] intentions [C] are [F#] good
Please don't let me be [Bm] misunderstood
[Em] Don't [Bm] let me be misunderstood
[Em] I've tried so hard, so please [Bm] don't let me be [Em] misunderstood
[Bm]
