[Verse]
Abmaj7
I've been writing letters
         Fm
 on the wall
                      Eb
I hope one day you'll see them all
         G          Ab
And that you’re not alone
Abmaj7
I've been playing memories
        Fm
in my mind
                 Eb
Wishing you were there,
 like all the time
    G       Ab
So I'm not alone

Tired of being stranded
I don't wanna be alone

How to play 1Am Freestyle: key, chords and progression

These are 1Am Freestyle chords by Joji on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

1Am Freestyle by Joji sits in E♭ major (three flats: B♭, E♭, A♭), and you need 6 chords to play it: Abmaj7, Fm, Ebmaj7, G, Ab and Eb.

Listen for G – Ab – Abmaj7 – Fm (III – IV – IVmaj7 – ii in E♭ major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is mi – fah – fah – reh. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 1st fret and play the shapes Gmaj7, Em, Dmaj7, F#, G, D (83% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 17% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
