Pretenders, Don't Get Me Wrong (1986)
Key: :[D] (w: Chrissie Hynde)
INTRO: [D] [Bm] [G] [A]
VERSE 1:
Don't get me
[D] wrong
If I'm looking kind of
[Bm] dazzled
I see
[G] neon lights
Whenever you walk
[A] by
VERSE 2:
Don't get me
[D] wrong
If you say hello and
[Bm] I take a ride
Upon a sea where the
[G] mystic moon
Is playing havoc
[A] with the tide
CHORUS:
Don't get me
[D] wrong
[Bm] [G] [A]
VERSE 3:
Don't get me
[D] wrong
If I'm acting so dis-
[Bm]-tracted
I'm thinking about the
[G] fireworks
That go off when you
[A] smile
VERSE 4:
Don't get me
[D] wrong
If I split like light re-
[Bm]-fracted
I'm only off to
[G] wander
[A]
Across a moonlit
[D] mile
[D]
BRIDGE:
[Em] Once in a
[A] while,
[Em] two people
[A] meet
[Em] Seemingly for no
[A] reason, they just
[Em] pass on the
[A] street
[Em] Suddenly
[A] thunder,
[Em] showers every-
[A]-where
[A] Who can explain the thunder and rain, but there's something in the air
INSTRUMENTAL:
[D] [Bm] [G] [A] //
[D] [Bm] [G] [A]
VERSE 5:
Don't get me
[D] wrong
If I come and go like
[Bm] fashion
I might be great to-
[G]-morrow
But hopeless yester-
[A]-day
VERSE 6:
Don't get me
[D] wrong
If I fall in the mode of
[Bm] passion
It might be unbe-
[G]-lievable
[A]
But let's not say so
[Bm] long
OUTRO:
It might just be fan-
[G]-tastic
[A]
Don't get me
[Bm] wrong
[Bm] [Bm] [Bm open]
