How to play Sims: key, chords and progression

Sims by Lauv is written in B minor (two sharps: F♯, C♯) and moves through 5 chords: G, A, D, Bm and F#m.

Most of the song cycles through G – A – D – Bm (VI – VII – III – i in B minor). Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 2nd fret and play the shapes F, G, C, Am, Em (80% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 60% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
