Standard (EADGBE)

Baby, do you understand me now?

Sometimes I feel a little mad

 But, don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel

When things go wrong I seem to be bad

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

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

If I seem edgy

I want you to know

That I never meant to take it out on you

Life has its problems

And I got my share

And that's one thing I never meant to do

'Cause I love you

Baby, don't you know I'm just human

And I've got thoughts like any other one

 And sometimes I find myself, oh Lord, regretting

Some foolish thing, some foolish thing I've done

 But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
