[Bm] [Em]
[Bm] [Em]
[Bm] Baby, do you [A] understand me now?
[G] Sometimes I feel a little [F#] mad
But [B] don't you know that no one alive [A] can always be an [G] angel
When things go wrong [F#] I seem to be bad
[Dm] I'm just a soul [Bm] whose intentions are good
[G] Oh Lord, [Em] please don't let me be [Bm] misunderstood
[Em] [Bm]
[Em] [Bm]
Baby, [A] sometimes I'm so carefree
[G]
With a joy that's hard to [F#] hide
[Bm] And sometimes it seems that all [A] I have to do is worry
[G] And then you're bound to see my [F#] other side
[Dm] I'm just a [Bm] soul whose intentions are [G] good
Oh Lord, please don't let [Bm] me be misunderstood
[A] [G] [A] If I seem edgy, [G] I want [A] you to know
[G] That I [A] never mean to [D] take it out [Bm] on you
[G] Life [A] has its problems [G] and I get [A] my share
[G] And that's one thing I [F#] never mean to do
[B] Cause I love you, oh, oh, [A] oh, baby, don't you know I'm human?
[G] Have thoughts [F#] like any other one
[B] Sometimes I find myself [A] a little [G] regretting
Some foolish thing, some [F#] sinful thing I've done
[D] I'm just a soul [Bm] whose intentions are
[Am] [G] good
Oh [Em] Lord, please don't let [Bm] me be misunderstood
Yes, [Em] [D]
I'm just a soul whose [Bm] intentions are [D] good
[Em]
Oh Lord, please don't let me be [Bm] misunderstood
[Em] [D] Yes, I'm just a soul [Bm] whose intentions are [D] good
[G] Oh Lord, [E] please don't let me [Bm] be misunderstood
Yes, [Em]
[D] I'm just a soul [Bm] whose intentions are good
