My Body Is A Diary

Am Em F F Am Em F F Am Em I gave my bird away F F Released it on a winter's day Am Em I hid the cage away F F In the darkest corner of my cave Am Em Drew circles in the snow F F Developed a strong vertigo Am Em I tried to forget F F But memories are like tattoos Dm Am G G 2x Dm Am G G I carry them with me Dm Am G G My body is a diary Dm Am G G It might not show it right away Dm Am G G But it remembers every day Am Em F F 2x Am Em F F I write on paper not my skin Am Em F F Read my arm like poetry Am Em F F Scars cover memories Am Em F F They keep them safe, lock them away Dm Am G G I carry them with me Dm Am G G My body is a diary Dm Am G G Read me like poetry Dm Am G G My body is a diary Am Em F F 2x Am Em I will gain peace of mind F F The day I let myself rewind Am Em F F F Am Will read my diary like poetry
