How to play Pirouette: key, chords and progression

Pirouette by Dizzy keeps coming home to C major (no sharps or flats). You need 6 chords: C, Am7, Am7/G, G, Fmaj7 and G6.

Most of the song cycles through C – Am7 – Am7/G – C (I – vi7 – vi7 – I in C major). In solfa, that is doh – lah – lah – doh. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes G, Em7, D, Cmaj7, D6 (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 80% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
