     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

      Bb                            F
     They don't know what they're playing
                Bb                          F
     No they've no way of knowing what the game is
              Am      Bb               G
     So they carry on doing what they can

     Dear diary, it was cold today
   Dm                       F
     But the 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,      but it wasn't anybody I knew
