How to play Rip: key, chords and progression

Rip by Joji feat. Trippie Redd is centred on C major (no sharps or flats). The song uses 3 chords: G, Em and Bm.

Most of the song cycles through G – Em – Bm – G (V – iii – vii – V in C major). In solfa, that is soh – mi – te – soh. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 7th fret and play the shapes C, Am, Em (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 67% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
