GENESIS: "MISUNDERSTANDING"

Acá, en esta canción, es donde el 90% de los fans de Genesis de entonces (1980) habrá dicho, a la primera oída: "ay, mamá, qué está pasando acá". Esta preanuncia toda la etapa posterior. Pop y letras de amor. A la mierda lo (poco) que quedaba del viejo Genesis progre ideológico. Y para que no queden dudas, la canción empieza por el estribillo, viejo pero siempre eficaz truco del que Collins, popero de alma, debe haber tomado nota cuando escuchó por primera vez "She loves you" de los Beatles. El tono original es Dm.

Intro: |Bm - C#m - D - F#m - E - E| x 3 - |A|

There |Bm| must be |C#m| some mi- |D| sun- |F#m| ders- |E| tanding

There |Bm| must be |C#m| some |D| kind of |F#m| mis- |E| take

I |Bm| waited |C#m| in the |D| rain |F#m| for |E| hours

You were |A| late

Now it's |Bm| not like |C#m| me to |D| say |F#m| the |E| right thing

But you |Bm| could've |C#m| called to |D| let |F#m| me |E| know

I |Bm| checked your |C#m| number |D| twice, |F#m| don't unders- |E| tand it

So I went |A| home

......|F| Well I'd been |G| waiting |F| for this |G| weekend

......|F| I thought that |G| maybe we could |F| see a |G| show

......|Em7| Never dreamed I'd have this |Dm7| feeling

......|Em7| But seeing you is be- |Dm7| lieving

......|Em| That's why I don't know why

......|F#| You didn't show up that night

There |Bm| must be |C#m| some mi- |D| sun- |F#m| ders- |E| tanding

There |Bm| must be |C#m| some |D| kind of |F#m| mis- |E| take

I |Bm| waited |C#m| in the |D| rain |F#m| for |E| hours

You were |A| late

......|F| Since then I've been |G| running around |F| trying to |G| find you

......|F| I went to the |G| places that you |F| always |G| go

......|Em7| I rang your home but got no |Dm7| answer

......|Em7| Jumped in my car, i went |Dm7| round there

......|Em| I still don't believe it

......|F#| He was just leaving

There |Bm| must be |C#m| some mi- |D| sun- |F#m| ders- |E| tanding

There |Bm| must be |C#m| some |D| kind of |F#m| mis- |E| take

There |Bm| must be |C#m| some mi- |D| sun- |F#m| ders- |E| tanding

There |Bm| must be |C#m| some |D| kind of |F#m| mis- |E| take

There |Bm| must be |C#m| there |D| must be, |F#m| oh, 
|E| oh, misunderstanding
There |Bm| must be |C#m| there |D| must be, |F#m| oh, 
|E| oh, misunderstanding
There |Bm| must be |C#m| there |D| must be, |F#m| oh, 
|E| oh, misunderstanding ---- |A|
