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