How to play Comeback: key, chords and progression

Comeback by Jonas Brothers sits in C major (no sharps or flats), and you need 3 chords to play it: C, F and G.

The progression the song keeps returning to is F – G – C – F (IV – V – I – IV in C major). In solfa, that is fah – soh – doh – fah. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 3rd fret and play the shapes A, D, E (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 67% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
