How to play New Religion: key, chords and progression

New Religion by Noah Gundersen is written in F major (one flat: B♭) and moves through 8 chords: F, C, Dm, Bb, Gm, Bbm, G and Db.

Listen for F – C – Gm – F (I – V – ii – I in F major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – soh – reh – doh. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 3rd fret and play the shapes D, A, Bm, G, Em, Gm, E, Bb (63% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 38% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
