How to play Lucky Strike: key, chords and progression

To play Lucky Strike by Troye Sivan, think in C major (no sharps or flats). It takes 3 chords: F, C and G.

Listen for F – C – G – F (IV – I – V – IV in C major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is fah – doh – soh – 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 D, A, E (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 67% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
