How to play Blur: key, chords and progression

To play Blur by MØ, think in E major (four sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯, D♯). It takes 5 chords: E, C#m, G#, A and B.

Listen for E – C#m – G# – E (I – vi – III – I in E major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – lah – mi – doh. 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, Am, E, F, G (80% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 40% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
