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

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
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/p/pete_townshend/misunderstood_crd.html ]
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

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