Verse: 1
 
G/A  D 
Dear diary 
Bm7 
Today I saw a boy 
G                    D 
And I wondered if he noticed me 
   Em7 
He took my breath away 


 
A    D 
Dear diary 
        C              B7 
I can't get him off my mind 
       Em7 
And it scares me 
                   G/A       D    A 
Because I've never felt this way 
Bm7            Bm 
No one in this world 
         Bm7             E7 
Knows me better than you do 
   Em7        G          A 
So diary I'll confide in you 


Verse: 2 
     D 
Dear diary 
Bm7               D 
Today I saw a boy 
G                 D                    Em7 
As he walked by I thought he smiled at me 


A     D 
And I wondered 
        C                 B7 
Does he know what's in my heart 
  Em7                        G/A    D      A 
I tried to smile,but I could hardly breathe 
        Bm7            Bm 
Should I tell him how I feel 
         Bm7            E7 
Or would that scare him away 
       Em7             G 
Diary, tell me what to do 
       Em7             A 
Please tell me what to say 


Verse: 3 
     D 
Dear diary 
Bm7                   D 
One touch of his hand 
D/A   G             D            Em7 
Now I can't wait to see that boy again 
A  D 
He smiled 
    D5        C              B7 
And I thought my heart could fly 
       Em7                        A         Bm7      Bm   Bm7 
Diary, do you think that we'll be more than friends? 
E7         Em7              A            D 
I've got a feeling we'll be so much more than friends 


Outro: A   G   Gm   D5
