How to play Piano: key, chords and progression

Piano is centred on F major (one flat: B♭). The song uses 3 chords: F, Bb and C.

The progression the song keeps returning to is F – Bb – F – C (I – IV – I – V in F major). In solfa, that is doh – fah – doh – soh. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 3rd fret and play the shapes D, G, A (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 33% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
