How to play Comatose: key, chords and progression

Comatose by Low Hum keeps coming home to G major (one sharp: F♯). You need 5 chords: C, Em, G, Am and D.

The backbone of the song is G – C – Em – C (I – IV – vi – IV in G major). In solfa, that is doh – fah – lah – fah. Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

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