Well, well

Look who's inside again
A                      D
Went out to look for a reason
to hide again

Now come out with your hands up

We've got you surrounded

How to play Stuck In A Room: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for Stuck In A Room by Bo Burnham on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

To play Stuck In A Room by Bo Burnham, think in D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯). It takes 8 chords: D, Bm, A, G, F#, Em, Gm6 and Gm.

Listen for D – Bm – A – G (I – vi – V – IV in D major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – lah – soh – fah. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Good to know: Bm, F#, Gm6 and Gm are the tricky part on guitar (barre or movable shapes). Slow the change down until it is clean; on piano and ukulele they are simpler.
