How to play Move: key, chords and progression

To play Move by Mike Posner, think in D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯). It takes 4 chords: D, A, Bm and G.

Listen for D – A – Bm – G (I – V – vi – IV in D major), the “four-chord” progression behind countless pop, rock and worship songs: the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – soh – lah – fah. 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 G, D, Em, C (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 75% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
