How to play Rescue: key, chords and progression

Rescue by Lauren Daigle keeps coming home to E major (four sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯, D♯). You need 8 chords: A, E, B, C#m, E/G#, Asus2/F#, Asus/F# and Bsus.

Listen for A – E – B – C#m (IV – I – V – vi in E major), a rotation of the four-chord pop progression that starts on the IV chord: the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is fah – doh – soh – lah. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 7th fret and play the shapes D, A, E, F#m, Dsus2, Dsus4, Esus4 (86% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 57% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
