How to play Swedish Fish: key, chords and progression

To play Swedish Fish by Luna, think in E major (four sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯, D♯). It takes 6 chords: E, Aadd9, Badd11, Aadd11, F#m11 and G#m.

Listen for E – Aadd9 – Badd11 – Aadd11 (I – IVadd9 – V – IV in E major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – fah – soh – fah. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 4th fret and play the shapes C, Fadd9, Gadd11, Fadd11, Dm11, Em (33% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 17% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
