How to play Enigma: key, chords and progression

Enigma by Lady Gaga is written in G major (one sharp: F♯) and moves through 6 chords: A, G, F, Fmaj7, C and D.

Listen for A – Fmaj7 – C – D (II – ♭VIImaj7 – IV – V in G major): the song comes back to it again and again. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes E, D, C, Cmaj7, G, A (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 83% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
