mysql SHOW VARIABLES - Forge

Hey!

I'm trying to run mysql commands on a forge DO droplet however am getting the following error:

ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'forge'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

How can I login to mysql from the command line? I just want to do things like SHOW VARIABLES.

Thanks!
