How to play Every Breath: key, chords and progression

Every Breath by Hillsong Worship is centred on C major (no sharps or flats). The song uses 5 chords: F, C, G, Am and C/E.

Listen for G – Am – F – C (V – vi – IV – I in C major), a rotation of the “four-chord” pop progression (I–V–vi–IV): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is soh – lah – fah – doh. 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 C, G, D, Em (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 75% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
