Track 5: 'Dear Diary'
Em C
Dear diary, today
Am G C
It feels like the stars are so far away
Em
When the world around is crashing down
C
Like waves against the tide
Am
And your heart can't take another hit
C
Fighting wars inside your mind (woah)
Em
Just know that the war's worth fighting
C
And it's still worth trying
C
Wipe the tears you’re crying
Am
Hold your head to the sky
C
And you'll make it to the other side
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C
If you need someone to fight your battles
Am G C
I’ll be standing right here beneath the shadows
[Chorus]
G
Dear diary, today
C
It feels like the stars are so far away
Em
She’s barely hanging on
D
But not for very long
C
Please don’t fly away
[Verse 2]
Em C
When you feel like your dreams are breaking at the seams
And you’ve got so far to go
Am G C
Come away to a happy place when you hear this on the radio
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C
If you need someone to fight your battles
Am G C
I’m standing right here beneath your shadows
[Chorus]
G
Dear diary, today
C
It feels like the stars are so far away

She’s barely hanging on

But not for very long
C
Please don’t fly away

Cause you mean everything, you mean everything to me

Beautiful soul, don’t fly away

Dear diary, today

Please don’t fly away
[Chorus]

Dear diary, today

It feels like the stars are so far away

Just keep holding on

You’re stronger than you know
