Em                  D
People, do you understand me now, 

   C                         B7
If sometimes I feel a little mad 

Em
Don't you know no one alive can 

D
Always be an angel 

     C                               B7
When things go wrong I seem a little sad 

    G                       Em           G
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good 

Am       B7                             Em   (Em B7 Em B7)
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood 

Em                         D
You know sometimes, I'm so carefree 

       C                  B7
With a joy that's hard to hide 

Em                   D
Sometimes seems that all I have is worry 

    C                                 B7
And then you're bound to see my other side 

    G                       Em           G
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good 

Am       B7                             Em   (Em B7 Em B7)
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood 

C         D       C           D
If I seem edgy, I want you to know 

C            D               Em
That I never mean to take it out on you 

C            D            C
Life has its problems and I get more 

        D
Than my share 

    C                        B7
But that's one thing I never mean to do 
I don't mean it
Em                D
People, don't you know I'm only human 

C                                     B7
Don't you know I have faults like any one 

    Em                       D
But sometimes I find myself alone regretting 

C                       B7
Some little thing; some foolish thing 
That I have done,
    G                       Em           G
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good 

Am       B7                             Em   (Em B7 Em B7)
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood 

B7                      Em
Don't let me be misunderstood 

B7                                    Em
I'm just someone whose intentions are good 

D                       Em
Don't let me be misunderstood, 

D                       Em
Don't let me be misunderstood . . .
