Dont Let Me Be Misunderstood chords
Cat Stevens (Another Cup album Caldwell, Benjamin & Marcus, first recorded by Nina Simone 1964)
Capo II
Em D C B7 2x
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 . . .
