Intro: G  C (2x) 

                G 
Well I guess I lied, 
C                            G 
I don't have much in common with the world outside. 
C                              G 
No one really knows how much I have to hide. 
C                              Em 
With that I'm really very ugly deep inside, 
A         C                           G 
I wish I was just like everybody. 


G                 C                             G 
Nothing changes, I wish I didn't have to tell a lie today, 
C                                      G 
But I know no one could ever love me anyway, 
C                                     Em 
And any good you get from me is just a role I play. 
A         C                      G 
I wish I was just like everybody. 


D               Em 
I, I, I'm so afraid 
D                  G   C   G 
I, I, I'm so afraid... 


G 
Well it seems,  
C                                 G 
I'm no longer a child and this is not a game. 
C                        G 
I see so many suffering, am I to blame? 
C                                Em 
But underneath my eyes of glass, I'm sick with shame,  
A         C                     G 
I wish I was just like everybody. 


G             C 
So turn away,I wish I could've saved you 
G 
From the pain I bring. 
C                                      G 
But there's no truth behind the pretty songs I sing, 
C                               Em 
I'm not sure I ever believed in anything. 
A         C                     G 
I wish I was just like everybody. 


D            Em 
I, I, I'm so afraid 
D                  G 
I, I, I'm so afraid... 

Em D C D C G C G   
Ohhhhhhhhhhh 


                G 
Well I guess I lied, 
C                             G 
I wear the same old mask,as everyone outside  
C                              G 
And everybody knows about the shame I hide 
C                           Em 
That I'm really very ugly deep inside. 
A          C 
I'm so, afraid. 
A           C 
I'm so, afraid! 
A           C 
I'm so afraid... 
                        G  C  G  C  Em  D   
I'm just like everybody.
