Key : B Major & G# Minor

This song is dedicated to Tino Coury as his belated birthday present. Tino Coury is a rising star and one of his most popular songs is "Diary". Please check it out on his YouTube Channel and you can also get it on iTunes.

This song is not as easy to play as there are many black keys involved. But, it's do-able.

Introduction

For the introduction, you can play the background music. For almost the entire song, the fundamental chords are G#, E, B, F# back to G#. Right Hand play the upper background part. Of course if you can add in the faint voice of the background, it will be very impressive.

The base notes for the Right Hand part are F# D# then E D# then E D# again then D# C# B

Twice


He said I'll always love ya
And girl it drives me crazy
He's just a careless whisper
And you're three times a lady
No he don't bring you flowers
Time after time you're waiting
But it's gonna take more than words
For you to hear what I'm sayin
(Keep this part semi detached on the accompaniment to create the background beat. Chords are G#, E, B, F# back to G#. Right Hand plays melody with some grace notes (salt and pepper))


So keep that record spinning
I got your sweet escape
And it's more than just a feeling
So let me take you away
Here's what I'll do, try a little something new
Go and close your eyes cause this one's for you
(Slightly richer in chords here. Semi-detached slowly becomes smoother. Same chords on G#, E, B, F# back to G#)


So baby don't worry, don't worry
Imma give what you need when he's gone
A three chord love song (oh)
A three chord love song (oh)
So baby don't worry, don't worry
Everytime this record comes on you'll get your
Three chord love song (oh)
A three chord love song (oh)
(Chorus! Very smoothly left hand dances on chords G#, E, B, F# back to G#. Refer to the video. Right Hand freestyle on Chorus)


You wanna know what love is
I'll be your voice of truth
He can't un-break your heart
And this I promise you
I know you're all cried out
It's time that you admit it
He's so replaceable
And I'll be right there in a minute
(Keep this part semi detached on the accompaniment to create the background beat. Chords are G#, E, B, F# back to G#. Right Hand plays melody with some grace notes (salt and pepper))


So keep that record spinning
I got your sweet escape
And it's more than just a feeling
So let me take you away
Here's what I'll do, try a little something new
Go and close your eyes cause this one's for you
(Slightly richer in chords here. Semi-detached slowly becomes smoother. Same chords on G#, E, B, F# back to G#)


So baby don't worry, don't worry
Imma give what you need when he's gone
A three chord love song (oh)
A three chord love song (oh)
So baby don't worry, don't worry
Everytime this record comes on you'll get your

(Chorus! Very smoothly left hand dances on chords G#, E, B, F# back to G#. Refer to the video. Right Hand freestyle on Chorus)

Baby lazy got it

Sharp so you should get with me
My love's like E, ecstacy

For you baby don't pull the plug
My angel, your halo, baby don't you worry
A three chord love song

(Rap Part and Bridge, Right Hand just freestyle on the chords according to Left Hand following the tempo of the Rap. Same fundamental chords)


So baby don't worry, don't worry

A three chord love song (oh)
A three chord love song (oh)
So baby don't worry, don't worry

Picture
Wow... Guess what...

Tino Coury, the Artist who sang Diary posted on my YouTube Channel. Maybe to most of you guys, it doesn't seem like anything special. To me, it's kinda special. At least some of my songs get appreciated personally by the artists themselves besides all of you guys who are extremely important to me.

Here's the message :

Tino

Please visit his Facebook or just listen to the Radio for his wonderful music, especially, Diary.

Cheerz!

Mood : Emo Mood + Angry Mood (It's kinda obvious)

Key : A Minor (You're gonna enjoy this a lot!)

I can't say this song is easy to play, but it's quite straightforward. However, take note of the background music. The piano part of the background music can be quite complicated if you want to play it together with the Melody, unless you've got 3 hands. Well, on the other hand, you can imitate certain background like what I've done.

Introduction
My main focus for the introduction of this song is to build momentum. As you notice, I go from simple notes, to little chords, to more broken chords, then high Left Hand accompaniment, and later to the Lower Deep Bass.

Left Hand : A, F, C, G (First part you can play 5th aparts, then Second Part, you play 5th apart then back to the same note an Octave higher)

Right Hand : G, C, G, C, G, C, B, C after the Left Hand, sounds continuous. You can add more notes in Third Part ie E, G, C and F, G, C

I read your diary
And it said
That you weren't in love with me
And you're leaving
And I wish that I didn't see
That you fell in love with him, him, him
But I read your diary
(Left Hand starts high in the middle since there's no bass in this part, but slowly move down towards the end. See the Video) Chords are A, F, C, G

There's a bridge over here before the next part. Learn it!


I saw a book wit lock and key right next to your name
I, I, I, I couldn't help myself cause things aint just been the same
Can you please tell me cause this shit is so insane
My heart is bleeding
Papercut from reading, reading
(This part has Jumping Bass on the Original Music, you can imitate it using bold Chords with Octaves. Just Jump and Bounce and POUNCE on your piano, don't destroy it though) A, F, C, G


Page 1
Says that your falling in and out of love
Page 2
Says all them things I do just aint enough
Page 3
No I couldn't see, Page 3 says you don't know how to explain it to me
(Smooth Left Hand to indicate changes in the Bass part. Just play your favorite broken chords) A, F, C, G



But I read your diary
And it said
That you weren't in love with me
And you're leaving
And I wish that I didn't see
That you fell in love with him, him, him
But I read your diary
Oh Oh Oh
Your diary
Oh Oh Oh
(Similar to above style but you can add more depth with Broken Chords with more Chords played at the same time, not so broken)


I turn the page and see a picture of you and him
No, No, No, that was the night you told me you were out with your
Friends
And now I know that my kiss was just S, Second
My heart is bleeding
Papercut from reading, reading...
(This part has Jumping Bass on the Original Music, you can imitate it using bold Chords with Octaves. Just Jump and Bounce and POUNCE on your piano, don't destroy it though) A, F, C, G


Page 4
Says your addicted to sexin him every night
Page 5
Has all the reasons you know that this isn't right
Page 6
I can't handle this
I feel just like JT on that cry me a river shit
(Smooth Left Hand to indicate changes in the Bass part. Just play your favorite broken chords) A, F, C, G - Also notice that the Right Hand here is different, instead of jumping on C it's D now, the lyrics I mean.


Cause I read your diary
And it said
That you weren't in love with me
And your leaving
And I wish that I didn't see
That you fell in love with him, him, him
But I read your diary
Oh Oh Oh
Your diary
Oh Oh Oh
(Broken Chords with more Chords played at the same time, not so broken)


Let's make a list
(Check)
Broken promises
(Check)
How you always told me you loved me right after every kiss
(Check)
And you, you always talkin shit
On them other chicks
(Check)
And now it's obvious that we know who the real bitch is...
(My Favorite Part, Broken Chords Left on A, F, C, G, use lots of Chords on the Right Hand)

(Bridge here before the next part, this is really nice to play. Just jump on the chords alternatively one after another right after the Left Hand bounces up. See the video to watch what I mean here)


I read your diary
And it said
That you weren't in love with me
And you're leaving
And I wish that I didn't see
That you fell in love with him, him, him
But I read your diary
Oh Oh Oh
Your diary
Oh Oh Oh
Your Diary
(Broken Chords with more Chords played at the same time, not so broken)
