Dawn by Breaking Benjamin is centred on C major (no sharps or flats). The song uses 6 chords: Am, F, C, Gadd11, Am7 and Fadd9.
The progression the song keeps returning to is C – Gadd11 – Am7 – Fadd9 (I – V – vi7 – IVadd9 in C major), the “four-chord” progression behind countless pop, rock and worship songs. In solfa, that is doh – soh – lah – fah. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.
Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes Em, C, G, Dadd11, Em7, Cadd9 (83% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 50% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
