[Verse 1]
D
 I bring her coffee
        G
 in the morning
A                          D
 She brings me inner peace
D
 I take her out to
       G
 fancy restaurants
A
 She takes the sadness
        D
 out of me
D
 I make her cards on
      G
 her birthday
A                         D
 She makes me a better man
D
 I take her water
            G
when she's thirsty
A                     D
 She takes me as I am

[Pre-Chorus]
  G
I love it when her
      A
 mind wanders
        D
And she loves it
               G
 when I stay at home
  G               A
I know what she's lost
        Bm
And she knows when
   D     G    A
I feel alone

[Chorus]
     D               A
From all my airs and graces
       Bm              G
To the little things I do
D             A
Everything is pointless
         G    A
 without you
   D                  A
Of all the dreams I'm chasing
        Bm         G
There's only one I choose
D             A
Everything is pointless
         G
without you

[Verse 2]
D
 I light the fire
           G
when it's cold out
A                           D
 And she lights up the room
D
 I hope that she'll
            G
 love me forever
A                           D
 She hopes I'll be back soon
D                      G
 I take her out to the movies
A                       D
 She takes away my pain

How to play Pointless: key, chords and progression

Pointless by Lewis Capaldi sits in D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯), and you need 4 chords to play it: D, G, A and Bm.

Listen for D – G – A – D (I – IV – V – I in D major), the I–IV–V–I, the backbone of gospel, blues and folk: the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – fah – soh – doh. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 7th fret and play the shapes G, C, D, Em (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 75% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
