These are If You Only Knew chords by Alexander Stewart on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

[Intro]
C  G  Dm7  F

[Verse 1]
          C
I've been tryin'
so hard to survive
          G
Sometimes I think
that I wanna die
       Dm7
I feel so fucking guilty
'cause god I'm so lucky
      F
to live my life
     C
So I keep all the
 pain to myself
       G
Losin' faith but
nobody can tell
       Dm7
Mom, I don't want you
worried 'cause that
 would just hurt me
   F
So I pretend I'm fine

[Chorus]
            C
If you only knew
What my mind is tellin'
              G
 me I should do
That I'm drunk and all
              Dm7
 alone in my room
here tonight
I'm too sad to cry,
      F
it's true, oh
            C
If you only knew
All the shit my brain
               G
 is puttin' me through
You'd come runnin' over
                Dm7
 straight to my room
 here tonight
                     F
I'm sorry but I need you
            C
If you only knew

[Verse 2]
      C
Oh, I wish I was
 somebody else
    G
I'm constantly overwhelmed
        Dm7
Now I'm falling again gettin'
 drunk with some friends
       F
It's a silent cry for help
            Am
I wanna get better,
               G
 I want you to know
             F
that I can't do
           Dm7
this on my own

[Chorus]
            C
If you only knew

What my mind is tellin'
             G
 me I should do

That I'm drunk and all
             Dm7
 alone in my room
 here tonight
I'm too sad to cry,
       F
 it's true, oh
            C
If you only knew
All the shit my brain
               G
 is puttin' me through

You'd come runnin'
                     Dm7
 over straight to my room
 here tonight
                     F
I'm sorry but I need you
            C
If you only knew

                    C
Take me out of this hell,
              G
 oh, somebody help
                 Dm7
take my out this hell,
              F
 oh, I'm not myself.

        C
I wanna tell you,
what my mind is telling
               G
 me I should do,

that I'm  drunk and all
             Dm7
 alone in my room
 here tonight,
I'm too sad to cry,
       F
but I want to,
Oh if you only knew.
