||:E5  B5  |A5  B5 :||

Just wanna be misunderstood
Wanna be feared in my neighborhood
Just wanna be a moody man
Say things that nobody can understand

D7
             G/D                 
I wanna be obscure and oblique
  C7/D          
Inscrutable and vague
D
So hard to pin down

D7                 G/D
I wanna leave open mouths when I speak
     C7/D                 B5
Want people to cry when I put them down

I wanna be either old or young
Don't like where I've ended up or where I begun
I always feel I must get things in the can
I just can't handle it the way I am

Why am I so straight and simple
People see through me like I'm made of glass
Why can't I deepen with graying temples
Am I growing out of my class

[harp solo]
||:B5  B5 (F# A Bb) :||

I always feel I should be somewhere else
I feel impatient like a girl on the shelf
They say that I should live sera sera
But I am such an ordinary star

Coolwalkingsmoothtalking, yeah

Just wanna be misunderstood
Wanna be feared in my neighborhood
Just wanna be a moody man
Say things that nobody can understand
