The song plays D-C-G over and over, I counted 18 times at the beginning, then plays F-C-G. So the first set would be in G. The second set - ostensibly in C - ends on G and could be construed as a half cadence in C. Or, you could recognize the connection to the blues and say it's just a turnaround progression in G. The F becomes a bVII borrowed from the minor - or the mixolydian which is important in blues - and is a substitute for the D or V chord. | |
