How to play Blue: key, chords and progression

Blue by The Neighbourhood is in the key of F minor (four flats: B♭, E♭, A♭, D♭). The song uses 5 chords: Fm, Db, C, Bbm and Cm.

Most of the song cycles through Fm – Bbm – Db – C (i – iv – VI – V in F minor). Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.
