How to play Left Behind: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for Left Behind by Lotte on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

Left Behind by Lotte is written in G major (one sharp: F♯) and moves through 5 chords: G, D, Em, Cadd9 and Bm.

The backbone of the song is G – D – Em – Cadd9 (I – V – vi – IVadd9 in G major), the “four-chord” progression behind countless pop, rock and worship songs. In solfa, that is doh – soh – lah – fah. Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

Beginner-friendly: almost every chord here is an open shape on guitar: no capo, no barre chords needed.
