[Verse 1]
Bm                 A
Baby, do you understand me now

G                            F#
  Sometimes I feel a little mad

      Bm                                   A
Well, don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel

G                             F#
  When things go wrong I seem to be bad
[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Bm                 A
Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree

G                           F#
 With a joy that's hard to hide

    Bm                                A
And sometimes it seems that all I have to do is worry

G                                      F#
 And then you're bound to see my other side
[Chorus]
D                       Bm                A
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
G N.C. G N.C. (Bm) Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood [Bridge]

G           A       G           A
  If I seem edgy, I want you to know

G         A                  D      Bm/F#
That I never mean to take it out on you

G              A            G        A
  Life has its problems and I get my share

G                            F#
And that's one thing I never mean to do, 'cause I love you
[Verse 3]
Bm           A
Oh, oh, oh, baby, don't you know I'm human

G                         F#
  Have thoughts like any other one

Bm                       A
Sometimes I find myself long regretting

G                                  F#
  Some foolish thing, some little simple thing I've done
[Chorus]
D                       Bm                A
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
