How to play I Believe: key, chords and progression

I Believe by Jonas Brothers is built around E major (four sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯, D♯), with 5 chords in all: A, Asus2, E, Asus and F#m.

Most of the song cycles through A – Asus2 – A – E (IV – IVsus2 – IV – I in E major). In solfa, that is fah – fah – fah – doh. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Beginner-friendly: on guitar almost every chord is an open shape, which makes this a good song to learn early on.
