How to play Thunderclouds: key, chords and progression

Thunderclouds by LSD is written in G major (one sharp: F♯) and moves through 6 chords: B, G, E, Em, C and D.

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

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