[Intro]
Fmaj7 C
Fmaj7 C


[Verse 1]
Fmaj7
     When your
touch
         C
walks me home
Fmaj7
     When you
taste
     C
this good
Fmaj7
     When the
            C
glitters is gold
And it feels like
   Gsus4   G
it should


[Chorus]
When you're
Fmaj7    C
so in love
And your
Fmaj7 C
souls touch
         Fmaj7
But it's still
     C
not enough
Where does it
Em
go? (Woah)
Where does
   Fmaj7
it go, oh
       Em
Nobody knows
(Nobody, nobody)
Where the
    C
love goes

[Verse 2]
Fmaj7
     You're an
amateur drunk and
               C
everyone knows it
    Fmaj7
But f**k, you're
the one
 and I live for
those
  C
moments (Ooo-woah)
         Fmaj7
When the bottle
is open,
anything can
       C
happen
           Gsus4
Flying too close
           G
to the sun

[Chorus]
When you're
Fmaj7    C
so in love (Oh
you're so in love)
         Fmaj7
And your souls
  C
touch (Ohhh)
         Fmaj7
But it's still
     C
not enough
Where does it
Em
go? (Woah, hey)
Where does it
Fmaj7
go, oh
       Em
Nobody knows
(Hey! Nobody)
Where the
    C
love goes

How to play Nobody Knows: key, chords and progression

Nobody Knows by Shawn Mendes is centred on C major (no sharps or flats). The song uses 5 chords: Fmaj7, C, Gsus4, G and Em.

The progression the song keeps returning to is C – Fmaj7 – C – Gsus4 (I – IVmaj7 – I – Vsus4 in C major). In solfa, that is doh – fah – doh – soh. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Beginner-friendly: every chord is an open chord on guitar, so you can play it without a capo or barre chords.
