I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND (v3 - 4/4/99)
(3rd attempt - one of the chorus chords was wrong
previously, added endtro, etc )

(some of the chords are partial chords, such as
elliott uses on 'bottle up and explode',
so that they don't interfere with the melody too
much when you try to sing)

I've arranged it for guitar with capo on fret 3,
to which all fret numbers are relative.

thought you'd be looking for the next in line to
love

     Dm         Dm/A         Bb

'cos my feelings never change a bit i always feel

i don't know why i guess i 'just do'

you once talked to me about love

        Gm                F   Gm          Dm
and you painted pictures of a never-never land

C                           F
and i could've gone to that place

      Gm           F
but i didn't understand

i didn't understand

   Gm         Dm
i didn't understand
