         Dm    C           F            A#       Dm
I'm not going down on my knees, begging you to adore me
          Dm        C   F      A#      Dm
Can't you see it's misery and torture for me
          F            C        F
When I'm misunderstood, try as hard as you can,
               C                   A#
I've tried as hard as I could, to make you see
A#
How important it is for me

Chorus:
           Dm                     Fm          C#
Here is a plea, from my heart to you, nobody knows me
                A#               Dm
As well as you do, you know how hard it is for me
    Fm                       C#
To shake the disease, that takes hold of my tongue
      A#
In situations like these

Dm C F             Dm C F
      Understand me      Understand me
Dm C F             Dm C F
      Understand me      Understand me

Some people have to be permanently together
Lovers devoted to each other forever
Now I've got things to do
And I've said before that I know you have too
When I'm not there
In spirit, I'll be there

Chorus

Understand me, understand me
Understand me, understand me
