[Intro]AmFCGAmFCG[Verse 1]AmF
This is the last song
CG
I'll write about you, ooh
AmF
I need to move on,
CG
I think you do too, ooh
[Pre-Chorus]Am
You were all that I wanted,
F
you know that you still are
C
'Cause I've been alright, yeah,
G
but you showed me better
Am
I know that we're changin'
F
but nothin' feels different
CG
I'm breakin' the silence to say
[Chorus]Am
If in ten years time
F
I'm still on your mind
C
Would you call and say
G
you want this?
Am
No matter where we are,
F
you still have my heart
CG
'Cause I locked it, and I promise
You're the locksmith
[Verse 2]AmF
We said, "Forever" and said it
CG
too soon (And said it too soon)
AmF
At least now I know nobody feels
C
like you do
G
(Nobody feels like you do)
[Pre-Chorus]Am
You were all that I wanted,
F
you know that you still are
CG
I'm breakin' the silence to say
[Chorus]Am
If in ten years time
F
I'm still on your mind
C
Would you call and say
G
you want this?
Am
No matter where we are,
F
you still have my heart
CG
'Cause I locked it, and I promise
Am
You're the locksmith
[Bridge]F
You're the one that I can see
C
me growin' old with
G
Build a house, I see it now,
Am
you plant me roses
F
And everything we dreamed about,
C
came into focus
G
Here's to hopin'
[Chorus]Am
If in ten years time
F
I'm still on your mind
C
Could you call and say
G
you want this?
Am
No matter where we are,
F
you still have my heart
C
'Cause I locked it,
G
and I promise
You're the locksmith
How to play Locksmith: key, chords and progression
These are Locksmith chords by Sadie Jean on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard
Locksmith by Sadie Jean sits in A minor (no sharps or flats), and you need 4 chords to play it: Am, F, C and G.
Listen for Am – F – C – G (i – VI – III – VII in A minor), the epic minor progression (i–VI–III–VII) used in many anthems: the song comes back to it again and again. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.
Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes Em, C, G, D (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 75% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
