How to play Warm: key, chords and progression

Warm by Charlie XCX feat. HAIM is in the key of D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯). The song uses 3 chords: F#m, G and A.

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

Good to know: F#m 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.
