How to play Plastic Doll: key, chords and progression

Plastic Doll by Lady Gaga sits in C major (no sharps or flats), and you need 5 chords to play it: F, Am, G, C and Em.

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

Beginner-friendly: almost every chord here is an open shape on guitar: no capo, no barre chords needed.
