Verse 1

[Bm] [A]

Baby, you understand me now

[G] [F#]

If sometimes you see that I'm mad

[Bm]

Don't you know no one alive

[A]*

Can always be an angel?

[G]* [F#]

When everything goes wrong, you see some bad

Chorus

[D] [Bm]

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

[A]* [G]* [Bm] [Em]

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Verse 2

[Bm] [A]

You know sometimes baby, I'm so carefree

[G] [F#]

With a joy that's hard to hide

[Bm] [A]*

And then sometimes again it seems that all I have is worry

[G]* [F#]

And then you're bound to see my other side

Chorus

[D] [Bm]

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

[A]* [G]* [Bm] [A]

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Bridge

[G] [A] [G] [A]

If I seem edgy, I want you to know

[G] [A] [D] [Bm]

I never mean to take it out on you

[G] [A] [G] [A]

Life has its problems, and I get more than my share

[G] [F#]

But that's one thing I never mean to do, 'cause I love you

Verse 3

[Bm] [A]

Oh, oh baby, I'm just human

[G] [F#]

Don't you know I have faults like anyone?

[Bm] [A]*

Sometimes I find myself alone, regretting

[G]* [F#]

Some little foolish thing, some simple thing that I've done

Chorus

[D] [Bm]

'Cause I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

[A]* [G]* [Bm] [Em]

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Outro

([Em]) [Bm]

Don't let me be misunderstood

[Em] [Bm]

I try so hard, so please don't let me be misunderstood

[Em]
