How to play Go Away: key, chords and progression

These are Go Away chords by Weezer & Bethany Cosentino for Piano and Ukulele.

Go Away by Weezer is written in C major (no sharps or flats) and moves through 6 chords: C, Am, F, G, Am7 and Fm.

Most of the song cycles through C – Am – F – G (I – vi – IV – V in C major), the classic 1950s “doo-wop” progression. In solfa, that is doh – lah – fah – soh. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes G, Em, C, D, Em7, Cm (83% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 67% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
