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