[Verse]
G           Am                       
            Loving you's just getting
                     Em
 harder and harder to do
                   Em                    D            G
Cause my head says no but my phone keeps calling you
    Am                                             Em
And you never pick up unless you’ve got nothing to do
                 Em
But you say that you want me
        D
Much as I want you
G
Over and over
              Am
Like it's Red rover
Em                      Em      D
Will your games ever be through
        G
Play me over and over
           Am
Pacman and lover
Em                             Em   D
Hoping you run out of quarters soon

[Bridge]
      Em
Don't hurt me
D
Leave me
     Em               Am
No I don't mean that
Em              D         Em   D
Love me all the way to death

[Chorus]
G                  Am
Oh it's killing me how
                   Em
Fear is holding me down
                 Em    D
But I wanna hold you
G                      Am
Oh I might burn to the ground
                       Em
But see me burn with a smile
                   D     G
If I die it's with you

How to play Pacman: key, chords and progression

Pacman by eaJ is in the key of G major (one sharp: F♯). The song uses 4 chords: G, Am, Em and D.

The backbone of the song is G – Am – Em – D (I – ii – vi – V in G major). In solfa, that is doh – reh – lah – soh. Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

Beginner-friendly: every chord here is an open shape on guitar: no capo, no barre chords needed.
