How to play U Shaped Space: key, chords and progression

U Shaped Space by Camila Cabello is written in E major (four sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯, D♯) and moves through 4 chords: E, B, A and C#m.

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

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 2nd fret and play the shapes D, A, G, Bm (75% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 50% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
