"Got Me Wrong" was a largely-acoustic single by American grunge band Alice in Chains. The studio version was first featured on the band's 1992 EP Sap. It was later performed on the band's 1996 MTV Unplugged performance and the subsequent live album, Unplugged. Both versions received significant airplay.

A slightly different version of the song also appeared on the soundtrack to Clerks, the seminal Kevin Smith film, when Randall first appears in the movie.

Alice in Chains guitarist Jerry Cantrell, who wrote the song, also performed it with the grunge band Stone Temple Pilots on one occasion.

The version from Sap later appeared on the compilation albums Music Bank and The Essential Alice in Chains; the version from Unplugged appears on the compilation album Nothing Safe: Best of the Box.

This song was covered by the post-grunge band Theory of a Deadman as a B-side for their "Santa Monica" single.
