How to play Oxygen: key, chords and progression

Oxygen by Elevation Youth is written in C major (no sharps or flats) and moves through 8 chords: C, F, Am, G, C/E, G/B, Csus and Dm.

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

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes G, C, Em, D, Gsus4, Am (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 67% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
