How to play Away: key, chords and progression

Away by Alcest feat. Neil Halstead is written in G major (one sharp: F♯) and moves through 4 chords: D, C, C2 and G.

Listen for G – D – C – G (I – V – IV – I in G major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – soh – fah – doh. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Good to know: C2 is the tricky part on guitar (barre or movable shapes). Slow the change down until it is clean; on piano and ukulele it is simpler.
