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