How to play Occupation H Monster: key, chords and progression

Occupation H Monster by The Charlatans is centred on D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯). The song uses 6 chords: D, D7, G, Dm7, D7sus2 and D7sus4.

Listen for D – D7 – D – G (I – I7 – I – IV in D major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – doh – doh – fah. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes A, A7, D, Am7, A7sus2, A7sus4 (83% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 67% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
