How to play On Fire: key, chords and progression

On Fire by The Roop is built around D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯), with 4 chords in all: Em, G, Bm and D.

The backbone of the song is Em – G – Bm – D (ii – IV – vi – I in D major). In solfa, that is reh – fah – lah – doh. Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 7th fret and play the shapes Am, C, Em, G (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 75% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
