[Verse 3]
Dm
I think the apple's
rotten
Am
right to the core
             C
From all the things
passed down
from all the apples
F
coming before
I split the apple
down

symmetrical lines

And what I find
is kind
of scary, makes me
F
just want to drive

When you're feeling
Am         F
alone, do you?
        G
I wanna know where you
 Am            F
go when you're feeling
alone
             G
When you're feeling
 Am
 alone,
   F
 do you?

How to play Apple: key, chords and progression

Apple by Charli XCX sits in A minor (no sharps or flats), and you need 5 chords to play it: G, Am, F, Dm and C.

Most of the song cycles through F – G – Am – F (VI – VII – i – VI in A minor). Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes D, Em, C, Am, G (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 80% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
