Pal do pal ki hai

Apni bezubaani

How to play Zinda Dili: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for Zinda Dili by Salim-Sulaiman feat. Arijit Singh on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

Zinda Dili by Salim-Sulaiman feat. Arijit Singh is built around A minor (no sharps or flats), with 7 chords in all: F, C, Am, Gsus4, Am7, Fsus2 and G.

The progression the song keeps returning to is Am – Gsus4 – F – Am (i – VIIsus4 – VI – i in A minor). Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Good to know: F and Fsus2 are played as barre or movable shapes on guitar. Practise the change into them slowly; on piano and ukulele the same chords are easier.
