How to play Mine: key, chords and progression

Mine by The 1975 keeps coming home to C major (no sharps or flats). You need 6 chords: C, Am, F, Fm, G and Cm7.

Listen for C – Am – F – Fm (I – vi – IV – iv in C major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – lah – fah – fah. 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 A, F#m, D, Dm, E, Am7 (83% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 50% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
