Every day, I imagine a future where I can be with you

The ink flows down into a dark puddle

Just move your hand – write the way into his heart!
C                   Am                   Dm          G
But in this world of infinite choices

What will it take just to find that special day?

Does my pen only write bitter words for those who are dear to me?

If I can’t hear the sound of your heartbeat

What do you call love in your reality?

How to play Doki Doki Literature Club: key, chords and progression

Doki Doki Literature Club by Jillian Ashcraft is in the key of C major (no sharps or flats). The song uses 5 chords: C, Am, F, G and Dm.

The progression the song keeps returning to is C – Am – F – G (I – vi – IV – V in C major), the classic 1950s “doo-wop” progression. In solfa, that is doh – lah – fah – soh. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

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