What Chord Does Ed Sheeran Use? [Solved]

Well, Sheeran’s got a different approach to chords than the norm. Instead of using the usual three major, three minor and one diminished chord in a key, he swaps out the two least appealing sounding chords for major inversions. So it’s I, ii, I/iii, IV, V, vi and V/vii instead.
