[INTRO]
C   F   Am   F

[CHORUS]
C                            F
  It only hurts this much right now
                     Am            F
  Was what I was thinking the whole time
C
  Breathe in, breathe through,
                   F
breathe deep, breathe out
                  Am               F
  I'll be getting over you my whole life

[VERSE 1]
Am
  You know how scared I am
     F                       Am
of elevators, never trusted if
                     F
  it rises fast, it can't last

[PRE-CHORUS]
C
  Oh, oh, I'm falling in love
F                                  Am
  Oh, no, I'm falling in love again
Oh, I'm falling in love
     F
  I thought the plane was going down,
heard you turn it right around

[INSTRUMENT]
C   F   Am   F

[CHORUS]
C                          F
  It only feels this raw right now
               Am            F
  Lost in the labyrinth of my mind
C
  Break up, break free, break
               F
through, break down
                         Am
  You would break your back to
            F
make me break a smile

[VERSE 2]
Am                                 F
  You know how much I hate that everybody
                   Am
 just expects me to bounce back
     F
  Just like that

[PRE-CHORUS]
C
  Oh, oh, I'm falling in love
F                                  Am
  Oh, no, I'm falling in love again
Oh, I'm falling in love
     F
  I thought the plane was going down,
heard you turn it right around
C
  Oh, oh, I'm falling in love
F                                  Am
  Oh, no, I'm falling in love again
 Oh, I'm falling in love
     F
  I thought the plane was going down,
 heard you turn it right around

How to play Labyrinth: key, chords and progression

These are Labyrinth chords by Taylor Swift on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

Labyrinth by Taylor Swift is centred on C major (no sharps or flats). The song uses 3 chords: C, F and Am.

The backbone of the song is C – F – Am – F (I – IV – vi – IV in C major). In solfa, that is doh – fah – lah – fah. Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes G, C, Em (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 67% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
