How to play Cool: key, chords and progression

To play Cool by Jonas Brothers, think in C major (no sharps or flats). It takes 3 chords: G, F and C.

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

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