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
                     Em
She’s barely hanging on
                 D
But not for very long
                   C       
Please don’t fly away


[Bridge]
C          D                Em
  Beautiful soul, don’t fly away
               Am                  C                                       
Cause you mean everything, you mean everything to me
Am          D              Em   D   C 
 Beautiful soul, don’t fly away


[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


[Chorus]
     G         
Dear diary, today
                  C                  
It feels like the stars are so far away
                  G
Just keep holding on
                         D                            
You’re stronger than you know


[Outro]
                   C    
Please don’t fly away
                   Em                    C
Please don’t fly away (Please don’t fly away)
                   Am                    C
Please don’t fly away (Please don’t fly away)
                  N.C.( optional: G )                        
Please don’t fly away
