[Verse 1]
D# Cm
Here are the woods where you would hide
Ab
From everyone you would avoid
D# Cm
They've been cut down into paper
Ab
For some school in Illinois
D# Cm
Here is your car you used to drive
Ab
Died in the wreck to keep you alive
D# Cm
You've got angels looking after you
Ab
And you're begging them
[Chorus]
D#
Don't leave the room
Cm Ab D#
'Cause I still need you
Cm Ab D#
And I will pull through
Cm Ab
I'll be okay, won't you stay?
D# Cm Ab
Don't leave the room, no
[Verse 2]
D# Cm
Fighting back the urge to yell
Ab
You tell your friends you're doing swell
D#
Your journal disagrees
Cm Ab
And your peers, oh they don't believe you
D# Cm Ab
You're not alone in this pool you're swimming
D# Cm Ab
The lifeguard will keep you from drowning
D# Cm Ab
You're not alone in this pool you're swimming
D# Cm Ab
The lifeguard will keep you afloat
[Chorus]
D#
Don't leave the room
Cm Ab D#
'Cause I still need you
Cm Ab D#
And I will pull through
Cm Ab
I'll be okay, won't you stay?
D# Cm Ab
Don't leave the room, no
