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