[Intro]
G D A x2

[Verse 1]
A                      E
What would you do if I told you
            F#m
you make me crazy
       D
To see your pretty pics on
            A
Sunset Boulevard?
                E
And it makes me lazy so
        F#m
I smoke cigarettes
        D
Just to understand the smog

[Pre-Chorus]
  D                  E
I love you lots like polka-dots
       C#m        F#m
You're killing me more
     D               E
Than coffee pots and Insta dots
     C#m        F#m
With every drop I pour
    D           E
And if I had to do it all
  A     E       F#m
Again I would because, babe,
in the end
              Dm      A
It brought me here to you

[Chorus]
  G                D
I left Calabasas, escaped
all the ashes
    A
Ran into the dark
               G     D
And it made me wild, wild,
        A
wild at heart
    G
The cameras have flashes,
     D
they cause the car crashes
    A
But I'm not a star
                       G
If you love me, you'll love me
           D             A
'Cause I'm wild, wild at heart
                         G
If they love me, they'll love me
           D             A
'Cause I'm wild, wild at heart

[Verse 2]
A
What would you do if I wouldn't
E
sing for them no more?
            F#m
Like if you heard I was out in
the bars drinking jack and coke
      D
Goin' crazy for anyone who would
                       A
listen to my stories, babe?
                          E
Time after time, I think about
leaving
             F#m
But you know that I never do,
                            D
just 'cause you keep me believing

[Chorus]
  D                E
I love you lots, despite the odds
       C#m         F#m
You're killing me, John
    D                        A
And all the thoughts brought us apart
    C#m          F#m
And that's okay, too
       D           A
'Cause even in the worst of times
    A       E       F#m
You saw the best of me
                      Dm        A
And that's why I stay here with you

[Chorus]
  G                D
I left Calabasas, escaped
all the ashes
    A
Ran into the dark
               G     D
And it made me wild, wild,
        A
wild at heart
    G
The cameras have flashes,
     D
they cause the car crashes
    A
But I'm not a star
                       G
If you love me, you'll love me
           D             A
'Cause I'm wild, wild at heart
                         G
If they love me, they'll love me
           D             A
'Cause I'm wild, wild at heart

How to play Wild At Heart: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for Wild At Heart by Lana Del Rey on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

Wild At Heart by Lana Del Rey is centred on D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯). The song uses 7 chords: G, D, A, E, F#m, C#m and Dm.

Most of the song cycles through A – G – D – A (V – IV – I – V in D major). In solfa, that is soh – fah – doh – soh. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Good to know: F#m and C#m are played as barre or movable shapes on guitar. Practise the change into them slowly; on piano and ukulele the same chords are easier.
