How to play Coffee Bean: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for Coffee Bean by Sierra Ferrell on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

Coffee Bean by Sierra Ferrell is in the key of D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯). The song uses 5 chords: E, F#/C#, G/D, G6 and G6/F#.

The progression the song keeps returning to is E – G6 – G6/F# – E (II – IV6 – IV6 – II in D major). In solfa, that is reh – fah – fah – reh. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 7th fret and play the shapes A, B, C, C6 (75% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 50% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
