How to play The One You Loved Is Gone: key, chords and progression

The One You Loved Is Gone by Slash feat. Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators is in the key of F♯ major (six sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯, D♯, A♯, E♯). The song uses 4 chords: F#, C#, D#m and B.

Most of the song cycles through F# – C# – D#m – B (I – V – vi – IV in F♯ major), the “four-chord” progression behind countless pop, rock and worship songs. In solfa, that is doh – soh – lah – fah. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 4th fret and play the shapes D, A, Bm, G (75% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 0% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
