How to play Reunion: key, chords and progression

Reunion by Busted keeps coming home to A major (three sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯). You need 8 chords: D, A, F#m, E, Bm, Dsus2, Asus2 and F#m7.

Most of the song cycles through D – A – F#m – E (IV – I – vi – V in A major). In solfa, that is fah – doh – lah – soh. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Good to know: on guitar, F#m, Bm and F#m7 need a barre or movable shape. Take the change into them slowly at first; piano and ukulele players have it easier.
