Verse 1
C#m
that we first were introduced
C#m
F#
he gave to me his name
G#m
F#
Then he whispered as he shook my hand
G#m
C#m
you understand
F#
C#m
We stepped out into the courtyard
who knew someone
C#m
F#
who had some cards to play
were chosen,
G#m
F#
It's then I realized he had a plan
C#m
G#m
That man misunderstood,
F#
C#m
F#
you understand
It seemed just like his face
F#
C#m
G#m
Ex actly what he planned to do
He said, follow me
G#m
C#m
F#
Keep up if you can't
C#m
G#m
I'm a man misunderstood,
We went walking over Bluestone,
C#m
E
D#
stumbled to a syncopated beat
C#m
F#
that shook them like a dole
C#m
G#m
And sent them reeling
through the evening
until the morning
G#m
C#m
you understand
C#m
F#
It's a dirty rotten mess,
G#m
forgiving everything, everything I had
F#
C#m
To the man misunderstood,
G#m
C#m
E
F#
E
you understand
F#
C#m
F#
We wasted no time waiting,
C#m
F#
we had reason to believe
C#m
G#m
The people needed saving,
C#m
F#
headed north along the hewn
than ours
F#
C#m
Me and that man misunderstood,
F#
C#m
do you under stand?
C#m
F#
preaching on deaf ears and blanket eyes
F#
D#
that our star was on the rise
C#m
F#
he was looking less than well
C#m
G#m
And though that thought set off alarm bells
D#
G#m
I still man aged to dispel it from my mind
that man
C#m
F#
C#m
Misunderstood, you understand
Then the days had turned to months
And the weeks had turned to years
F#
G#m
And all the rhetoric he
spoke so well
G#m
C#m
That maybe after taking from me
F#
C#m
To the man misunderstood,
B
C#m
F#
C#m
you understand
Yes, I had made my mind up
G#m
Over one last glass of Carlton draught
C#m
F#
We were closer now than brothers
F#
D#
then we turned upon each other
G#m
F#
And he fell there, by my own hand
B
C#m
you understand
Well it's been years now
since the day I left
C#m
F#
of my own misspent life
G#m
F#
And I was wrong on the day I ran
B
C#m
you understand
And so this evening when I saw you
G#m
C#m
And I thought perhaps with ample luck
G#m
D#
I might just set this straight
A
G#m
You had that hungry burning arrogance
G#m
C#m
That re minded me confrontingly
G#m
F#
So I told you as I shook your hand
B
you understand
B
C#m
you understand
Oh, I'm a man misunderstood,
B
C#m
G#m
you understand
How did you like the song?
