We stepped out into the courtyard
who knew someone
Abm
Db
who had some cards to play
were chosen,
Ebm
Db
It's then I realized he had a plan
Abm
Ebm
That man misunderstood,
Db
Abm
Db
you understand
It seemed just like his face
Db
Abm
Ebm
Ex actly what he planned to do
He said, follow me
Ebm
Abm
Db
Keep up if you can't
Abm
Ebm
I'm a man misunderstood,
We went walking over Bluestone,
Abm
B
Bb
stumbled to a syncopated beat
Abm
Db
that shook them like a dole
Abm

And sent them reeling
through the evening
until the morning

We wasted no time waiting,

Me and that man misunderstood,

that our star was on the rise

spoke so well

Over one last glass of Carlton draught

And he fell there, by my own hand

Well it's been years now
since the day I left
Abm

of my own misspent life
Ebm

And I was wrong on the day I ran
Gb

And so this evening when I saw you
Ebm
Abm
And I thought perhaps with ample luck
Ebm
Bb
I might just set this straight
E

You had that hungry burning arrogance
Ebm
Abm
That re minded me confrontingly
Ebm
Db
So I told you as I shook your hand
Gb
you understand
Gb
Abm
you understand
Oh, I'm a man misunderstood,
Gb
Abm
Ebm
you understand
How did you like the song?
