Misunderstood

G       D4/F#    Em7
 Should I? Could I?
                            D4     
Have said the wrong things right a 
            C9
thousand times
                   G/B             
If I could just rewind, I see it in
     Am7
 my mind
If I could turn back time, you'd 
          G
still be mine

      D4/F#   Em7
You cried, I died
                       D4          
I should have shut my mouth, things
             C9
 headed south
                             G/B   
As the words slipped off my tongue,
               Am7
 they sounded dumb
If this old heart could talk, it'd 
say you're the one
Am
  I'm wasting time . . .
C9                   Em7
  When I think about it

[Chorus]

    C9                        G
I. . . should have drove all night,
                          D4/F#
I would have run all the lights
                Em7
I was misunderstood
    C9                   G
I. . . stumbled like my words,
                D4/F#
Did the best I could
 C9                 Am
Damn. . . misunderstood

G       D4/F#     Em7
  Could I? Should I?
                 D4                
 Apologize for sleeping on the 
        C9
couch that night
                           G/B
 Staying out too late with all my 
friends
Am7
 You found me passed out in the yard
 again
G       D4/F#    Em7
 You cried, I tried
                            D4
 To stretch the truth, but didn't 
lie
Am                C9             
 It's not so bad. . . when you 
          Em7
think about it

[Chorus]

    C9                        G
I. . . should have drove all night,
                          D4/F#
I would have run all the lights
                Em7
I was misunderstood
    C9                   G
I. . . stumbled like my words,
                D4/F#
Did the best I could
Em7   C9                       G
I'm. . . hanging outside your door
                  D4/F#          Em7
I've been here before, misunderstood
   C9                    G
I. . . stumbled like my words,
                D4/F#
Did the best I could,
 C9                 Am
Damn. . . misunderstood

Am                C9         
  It's you and I,    just think 
            Em7
about it

[Chorus]

    C9                        G
