How to play Captured: key, chords and progression

Captured by Isla Vista Worship is built around G major (one sharp: F♯), with 16 chords in all: C, B, B/D#, Em, Dm, G, Bm, Am, G/B, D, B7 and B7/D# and 4 more.

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

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