[Intro]
Gmaj7 G Am B7
Gmaj7 G Am B7

[Chorus]
                 Cmaj7    
Don't you know I love you?
                   Am7
 (Don't you know I love you?)
                 G        
Don't you know I love you?
                   B7
(Don't you know I love you?)
                 Cmaj7    
Don't you know I love you?
                   Am7
 (Don't you know I love you?)
                 G       B7
Don't you know I love you?

[Verse 1]
Gmaj7             G         
 Something in the water told 
                   Am7 B7
me I should stay away
Gmaj7             G    
   Shining in the rough, 
                         Am7
they dig us up and separate
       B7     Cmaj7
What a waste, caught up in a trap
The world was in the back
            Am7
If you were only just a scab
I wouldn't be looking back, 
      G
you know?
    B7
You now?

[Verse 2]
Cmaj7
Light up in the cab
    Cmaj7
The world is only mad
      Am7
That time is moving fast
And it won't be in a
            G
 trance for long
    B7
For long

[Chorus]
                 Gmaj7
Don't you know I love you?
 (Don't you know I love you?)
                 Am7      
Don't you know I love you? 
                   B7
(Don't you know I love you?)
                 Gmaj7    
Don't you know I love you? 
                   G
(Don't you know I love you?)
                 Am7    B7
Don't you know I love you?

[Verse 1]
Cmaj7
Caught up in a trap
The world was in the back
            Am7
If you were only just a scab
I wouldn't be looking back, 
      G
you know?
    B7
You now?

[Verse 2]
Cmaj7
Light up in the cab
The world is only mad
     Am7
That time is moving fast
And it won't be in a trance 
     G
for long
    B7
For long

[Outro]
Gmaj7 G Am7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7

How to play Dykily: key, chords and progression

These are Dykily chords by Joji for Piano and Ukulele.

Dykily by Joji is written in G major (one sharp: F♯) and moves through 6 chords: Gmaj7, G, Am, B7, Cmaj7 and Am7.

Listen for B7 – Cmaj7 – Am7 – G (III7 – IVmaj7 – ii7 – I in G major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is mi – fah – reh – doh. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Beginner-friendly: on guitar every chord is an open shape, which makes this a good song to learn early on.
