How to play Valleys My Love: key, chords and progression

Valleys My Love by Whitney is built around E major (four sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯, D♯), with 6 chords in all: E, E6, Emaj7, F#m, G#m and A.

Listen for E – E6 – Emaj7 – F#m (I – I6 – Imaj7 – ii in E major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – doh – doh – reh. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 2nd fret and play the shapes D, D6, Dmaj7, Em, F#m, G (83% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 33% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
