STANDARD TUNING
CAPO 5
Chords: EM G C D
Your love is the strongest thing i know
i reckon its been doing weights
eating raw eggs and cereal
and running ten miles a day
and your love has a driving ban i try to steer intoxicated with another love inside her hands
and your love is a friend of mine, so we'll take care tonight
if you could only say the words i'll take it and i'll write it down
and hold it deep inside of me until the day you found me out
but i know your love, and that's why
CHORUS:
I could be your diary
baby if you open me up, keep it inside me
i'll give you the world, just give me the words X2
and your love has never my enemy
used to hold me and promise it would never leave
never been better since all the therapy
to read the words between the lines
and take away my melody
and your lo-o-ve, told me it was fell into a different page
and you know if i let you go, i'll still keep you sa-a-afe
if you could only say the words I'll take it and i'll write it down
and hold it deep inside of me until the day you found me out
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/e/ed_sheeran/diary_crd.html ]
but i know your love, and thats why
CHORUS:
I could be your diary
baby if you open me up, keep it inside me
i'll give you the world, just give me the words X2
BRIDGE:
You are the one i fall asleep with but never wake up to
'Cuz work is something you must do
I trust you like you trust me it must mean true love
it does exactly what it says on the tin,
Let me begin, you are the one i watch the movies with
For recognizing my love for Kiera Knightley for what it truly is
Just an excuse so I dont have to watch "Love, Actually" again
But you're actually the same, its just to spite me
And we eat ice-cream with fishes in it, until the dishes finish,
Playing computer games although i know i'll never win it
I tried to make tea once for you in bed
But all i did was spill it, so you made it for me instead
Let me in bed, if you get in ahead of me its better to do
Yep, love is ahead of the truth
that in love you are better than two
I'll be the newcomer, stuck in heaven with the devil in you
Diary
baby if you open me up
keep it inside me
i'll give you the world
just give me the words
and i could be your diary
baby if you open me up
keep it inside me
i'll give you the world
just give me the words
yeah
