Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 (Original Key: )

Intro

Verse 1

People, do you under-stand me now,

If sometimes, I feel a little mad?

Don't you know no one alive can always be an angel?

When things go wrong, I seem a little sad.

Chorus 1

 But I'm just a soul whose in-tentions are good.

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunder-stood.

Interlude

Verse 2

You know sometimes, I'm so carefree,

With a joy that's hard to hide.

Sometimes seems that all I have is worry,

And then you're bound to see my other side.

Chorus 2

 But I'm just a soul whose in-tentions are good.

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunder-stood.

Interlude

Bridge 1

If I seem edgy, I want you to know;

That I never mean to take it out on you.

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

 But that's one thing I never mean to do; I don't mean it.

Verse 3

People, don't you know I'm only human?

Don't you know I have faults like any-one?

But sometimes, I find myself a-lone,

 Regretting some little thing,

 Some foolish thing that I have done.

Chorus 3

 But I'm just a soul whose in-tentions are good.

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunder-stood.

Coda

Don't let me be misunder-stood;

I'm just someone whose in-tentions are good.

Don't let me be misunder-stood,

Don't let me be misunder-stood.
