[Intro]
Am F C G
Am F C G

[Verse 1]
Am             F
  This is the last song
                   C   G
I'll write about you, ooh
Am           F
  I need to move on,
                 C   G
 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
      C                     G
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
          C                G
'Cause I locked it, and I promise
You're the locksmith

[Verse 2]
Am              F
   We said, "Forever" and said it
      C                     G
too soon (And said it too soon)
Am                F
   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
      C                     G
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
          C                G
'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.
