[Intro]
Am F C x3

[Verse 1]
             Am            
I can't keep writing songs 
 F                  C
about the things I left behind
            Am          F      
I spent way too much time alone
       C
 inside my morbid mind
        Am             F     
I wanna live inside my dreams
             C
 but I can't sleep at night
        Am                 F   
I lost myself between the seams
             C
 and I just close my eyes

[Chorus]
             Am       F
Don't let me fall
        C
I won't stay too long
          Am       F
I gave my all
                C
And I'm always staying strong
        Am       F          
I can't go back home, till my
    C
 name is known
         Am         F        C
No, I can't fall

Am F C x4

[Verse 2]
                 Am          
And I can't keep running from 
   F                  C
myself by drinking alcohol
                Am           
I got too drunk last night I
    F           C
 think I almost lost it all
                 Am                F
I smoke too much, don't need an oven
        C
Barely sleep at all
              Am              F
When I'm alone, can't get away 
           C
from all my morbid thoughts

[Chorus]
             Am       F
Don't let me fall
        C
I won't stay too long
          Am       F
I gave my all
                C
And I'm always staying strong
        Am       F              C
I can't go back home, till my name 
is known
         Am         F        C
No, I can't fall

How to play Morbid Mind: key, chords and progression

This is the chords of Morbid Mind by Jack Kays on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.

Morbid Mind by Jack Kays is centred on A minor (no sharps or flats). The song uses 3 chords: Am, F and C.

The backbone of the song is Am – F – C – Am (i – VI – III – i in A minor). Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes Em, C, G (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 67% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
