Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  wish I was someone  else
I'm  confused I'm afraid  I hate the loneliness
And  there's nowhere to run  to
Nothing  makes any sense
But  I still try  my hardest
Take  my hand
Please  help me man
 'Coz I'm  looking for something  to believe  in
 And I  don't know where to start
 And I dont'  know where  to begin,  to begin
 - same chords as above
 If I was stupid or naive
 Trying to achieve what they all call contentness
 If people weren't such dicks
 And I never made mistakes
 Then I could find forgiveness
 Take my hand
 Please help me man
 - same chords as above
 'Coz I'm looking for something to believe in
 And I don't know where to start
 And I dont' know where to begin, oh no
 |  -  | x10 (trust me I counted)
I  can't be someone  else
I  don't feel that  it's hopeless
I  don't feel that I'm useless
I  can't throw it all away
 I need some courage  to find  my weakness
And  with your love
 I know  with all my  heart I can win
 - same chords as above
 'Coz I'm looking for something to believe in
 And I just need something to believe in...
