[Intro]
Dm/A   F   C
 G   Dm/A   F
C  G   G

[Verse 1]
Am
 Just a scar somewhere
  C                 G
 down inside of me
          Em                Am
Something I can not repair
       C                      G
Even though it will always be
      Em
I pretend it isn't
   Am
there (This is how I feel)
      C               G
I'm trapped in yesterday
 (This is how it will be)
           G
Where the pain is all
         Am
 I know
(This is all I know)

[Pre-Chorus]
          C            G
And I'll never break away
(Can't break free)
            G
'Cause when I'm alone

[Chorus]
     Dm/A          F
I'm lost in these memories
 C               G
Living behind my own illusion
 Dm/A        F
Lost all my dignity
 C               G
Living inside my own
 confusion

[Verse 2]
         Am
But I'm tired,
        C            G
I will always be afraid
        Em            Am
Of the damage I've received
         C            G
Broken promises they made
          Em          Am
And how blindly I believed
(This is all I know)

[Pre-Chorus]
          C            G
And I'll never break away
 (Can't break free)
            G
'Cause when I'm alone

[Chorus]
     Dm/A          F
I'm lost in these memories
 C               G
Living behind my own illusion
 Dm/A        F
Lost all my dignity
 C               G
Living inside my own confusion

[Bridge]
    Am
I try to keep this pain inside
    Am
But I will never be alright
    Am
I try to keep this pain inside

How to play Lost: key, chords and progression

These are Lost chords by Linkin Park on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

Lost by Linkin Park is written in A minor (no sharps or flats) and moves through 6 chords: Dm/A, F, C, G, Am and Em.

Listen for Dm/A – F – C – G (iv – VI – III – VII in A minor): the song comes back to it again and again. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

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