Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood
The Animals 


Bm Em  Bm Em
             Bm                          A
             Baby, do you understand me now
             G                                      F#
             Sometimes I feel a little mad
             Well, don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel
             When things go wrong I seem to be bad

                          D                                   Bm                        (A)
                          I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
                          G                                                              Bm        Em  Bm Em
                          Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

             Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree
             With a joy that's hard to hide
             And sometimes it seems that all I have to do is worry
             And then you're bound to see my other side

                          Well, I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
                          Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

                                     G                A    G                       A
                                        If I seem edgy, I want you to know
                                        G                   A                        D        Bm
                                        That I never mean to take it out on you
                                     G                     A            G                     A
                                        Life has it's problems and I get my share
                                      G                                              F#
                                        And that's one thing I never mean to do, cause I love you

             Oh, oh, oh, baby, don't you know I'm human
             Have thoughts like any other one
             Sometimes I find myself long regretting
             Some foolish thing, some little simple thing I've done

                       (same as 1st chorus)
                          I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
                          Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

                          Yes, I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
                          Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

                          Yes, I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
                          Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

                          Yes, I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
                          Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood...
