      [Verse]
                     F                     C
I know it's hard to tell how mixed up you feel
                 E                   Am
Hoping what you need is behind every door
                   F                         C
Each time you get hurt, I don't want you to change
                      E                       Am
Because everyone has hopes, you're human after all
                 F                              C
The feeling sometimes, wishing you were someone else
            E                Am
Feeling as though you never belong
                     F                           C
This feeling is not sadness, this feeling is not joy
             E                   Am
I truly understand. Please, don't cry now

[Chorus]
             F                 C
Please don't go, I want you to stay
                 E                   Am
I'm begging you please, please don't leave here
                     F                             C
I don't want you to hate for all the hurt that you feel
                   E                 Am
The world is just illusion trying to change you

[Verse]
                F
Being like you are
                         C                   E
Well this is something else, who would comprehend?
                  Am
But some that do, lay claim
          F             C
Divine purpose blesses them
                      E                             Am
That's not what I believe, and it doesn't matter anyway
                F                          C
A part of your soul ties you to the next world
                  E                      Am
Or maybe to the last, but I'm still not sure
               F                             C
But what I do know, is to us the world is different
                    E                         Am
As we are to the world but I guess you would know that

[Chorus](repeat twice)
             F                 C
Please don't go, I want you to stay
                 E                   Am
I'm begging you please, please don't leave here
                     F                             C
I don't want you to hate for all the hurt that you feel
                   E                 Am
The world is just illusion trying to change you
             F                 C
Please don't go, I want you to stay
                 E                   Am
I'm begging you please, please don't leave here
                     F                              C
I don't want you to hate for all the hurt that you feel
                   E                 Am
The world is just illusion always trying to change you
