Dm F Bb A
Dear diary, what a day it's been
It was cold out, side my door
It's over, will tomorrow be the same
Dm F Bb A
Dear diary, it's been just like a dream
So many, people by the score
I know that, they're really not to blame
Dm F E A
Woke up too late, wasn't where I should have been
Rushing around, so senselessly
If they weren't so blind, then surely they'd see
Dm F E A
For goodness sake, what's happening to me
They don't notice, there's people like me
There's a much better way, for them to be
Dm F G
Write lightly, yours truly, dear diary Go %(2)
Write lightly, yours truly, dear diary
Inside me, yours truly, dear diary Go &

Dm F Bb A
Dear diary, it was cold today
Dm F
Bit of sun came out later
Bb A
So I went out and strolled about looking at the shops
Dm F Bb A
Didn't really see anything I liked, so I didn't buy anything
Dm F Bb A
On the way home I posted a letter
Dm F Bb A
Been quite a nice day
Dm F Bb A Dm
Somebody exploded an H-bomb today, afraid it wasn't anybody I knew
