Am
Your love is the strongest thing I know
C
I reckon it's been doing weights
F
Eating raw eggs and cereal
     G
And running ten miles Amday

And your love has a driving ban
From tryin' to steer intoxicated
with another love inside your hands
And your love is Amfriend of mine
So I'll take good care tonight

   Am
If you could only say the words
I'll take em and I'll write em down
C
And hold it deep inside of me
Until the day you found me out
F
But I know your love
G
That's why

Chorus:
               Am
I can be your diary
            C
Baby if you open me up
           F
Keep it inside me
                   G
I'll give you the world,
just give me the words - x2

And your love, has never been my enemy
It 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 love told me it was fallin'
through Amdifferent page
And you know if I let you go
I'll still keep you safe

If you could only say the words
I'll take em and I'll write em down
And hold it deep inside of me
Until the day you found me out
But I know your love
That's why

Chorus - x2

You are the one I fall asleep with
But never wake up to
Cos work is something you must do
I trust you like you trust me
This must be true love
It does exactly what
it says on the tin, let me begin
You are the one I watch the movies with
And recognising my love for
KeirAmKnightley for what it truly is
It's just an excuse so
I don't have to watch Love Actually again
But we're actually the same it's just to spite me

And we eat ice cream with fishes in it
Until the dishes finish
Play computer games although
I know I'll never win it
I tried to make teAmonce 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 me it's better to do
Yeah love is Amhell of Amtruth
And in love we are better in two
I've been A new-comer
So I can never see the devil in you

Chorus - x2
