[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
Baby, you understand me now
~#**************#~
If sometimes you see that Im mad
~#**************#~
Dont you know no one alive can always be an angel?
~#**************#~
When everything goes wrong, you see some bad
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
But Im just a soul whose intentions are good
~#**************#~
Oh, Lord, please dont let me be misunderstood
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
You know sometimes, baby, Im so carefree
~#**************#~
With a joy thats hard to hide
~#**************#~
And then sometimes again, it seems that all I have is worry
~#**************#~
And then youre bound to see my other side
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
But Im just a soul whose intentions are good
~#**************#~
Oh, Lord, please dont let me be misunderstood
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
If I seem edgy, I want you to know
~#**************#~
I never meant to take it out on you
~#**************#~
Life has its problems and I get more than my share
~#**************#~
But thats one thing I never mean to do cause I love you
~#**************#~
[Verse 3]
~#**************#~
Oh, baby, Im just human
~#**************#~
Dont you know I have faults like anyone?
~#**************#~
Sometimes I find myself alone regretting some little foolish thing
~#**************#~
Yeah, some simple thing that Ive done
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
‘Cause Im just a soul whose intentions are good
~#**************#~
Oh, Lord, please dont let me be misunderstood
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
I try so hard, dont let me be misunderstood
~#**************#~
I try so hard, dont let me be misunderstood
