Joe Cocker - Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood (from Organic) chords
Start Jamming...
[C] What we did with the percussion section on this thing was I think pretty
revolutionary.
First of all you got Jim Keltner who's got this unbelievable
history with Joe.
Jim if you can [Em] kind of play on the back.
[G] Do you know what I mean?
We're just being natural here.
We're not, you know, like nobody's listening to us at all, right?
[E] And Kenny Aronoff who's a really, you know, [Db] inventive drummer who [A] was percussion major in college.
Let Joe Conner solo for [C] me a little.
[Em] And they came up with something that I've never seen any drummers do which is
in one case [A] Jim would play the bass drum and Kenny played the snare [B] and then
they both have all these [Em] extra limbs free so they were [A] grabbing percussion instruments.
[D] [Am]
[G] [Am]
[D] [Bm] [Am] Baby, [G] do you understand me now?
[F] Sometimes I get [E] a little mad.
[Am] Don't you know no one like
[G] I could always be a ninja.
[F] When things go wrong [E] you're bound to see some bad.
[C] But I'm just a soul [Am] whose intentions are good.
[Bb] Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood.
[A] [G]
[D] [Am] [G]
[E] You know sometimes [Am] [G] I'm so carefree.
[F] With a joy that's [E] hard to hide.
[Em] [Am] Then sometimes again it [G] seems all I have is worry.
[C] And you're bound to see [E] my other side.
[C] I'm just a soul [Am] whose intentions are good.
[Bb] Oh Lord, please don't let me be [Am] misunderstood.
[Em]
[F] If I [G] seem edgy [F] I want [G] you to know
[F] I [G] didn't mean [C] to take it out on [Am] you.
[F] Life [G] has its problems.
[F] I've gotten [G] my share.
[F] But [G] that's one thing I [C] didn't mean to do.
But [E] I know
cause I love [A] you.
Yes, [G] I do.
