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