Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Don't get me wrong
 If I'm looking kind of dazzled
 I see neon  lights
 Whenever you walk by
 Don't get me wrong
 If you say hello and I  take a ride
 Upon a sea where the mystic  moon
 Is playing havoc with  the tide
 Don't get me wrong
 Don't get me wrong
 If I'm acting so distracted
 I'm thinking about the fireworks
 That go off when you smile
 Don't get me wrong
 If I split like light refracted
 I'm only off to wander
 Across a moonlit mile
Once  in a while
Two  people meet
Seemingly  for no reason
 They just pass  on the street
Suddenly  thunder, showers  everywhere
 Who can explain the thunder and rain
 But there's something in the air
 (something here which I was unable to work out, if anyone knows this bit tell me and I'll put it in!)
 Don't get me wrong
 If I come and go like fashion
 I might be great tomorrow
 But hopeless yesterday
 Don't get me wrong
 If I fall in the mode of passion
 It might be unbelievable
 But let's not say so long
 It might just be fantastic
 Don't get me wrong...
 Am x 5 don't fade
