How to play I Lived It: key, chords and progression

I Lived It by Blake Shelton is built around A major (three sharps: F♯, C♯, G♯), with 5 chords in all: A, F#m, D, E and Bm.

The progression the song keeps returning to is D – A – F#m – D (IV – I – vi – IV in A major). In solfa, that is fah – doh – lah – fah. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 2nd fret and play the shapes G, Em, C, D, Am (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 60% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
