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