Which Piano Chords Does This Song Use?

Q. I really need to know!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJnzXG7o3B8
I actually wanted to know what the chords were of that actual key in the video...sorry if it wasnt clear

A. I think they're

G |G |Dm |C |

At about 2:36 they change to

C |C |G |D |

(the first time he plays the C he plays A in the left hand -- I think it's a mistake)

At about 3:15 he plays a C chord . . . then back to the first progression (G |G |Dm |C |). He ends on Gsus2-to-G.

Original Question

How do you play piano chords??!!?
Q. I'm a beginner and teaching myself how to play Keyboard/Piano. I've borrowed so many books on the subject but can't figure out piano chords! My understanding is you play 3 notes at once - but its still confusing when looking at people play them on YouTube. Some music have just symbols like E, Dm, etc and lyrics??

Also, I'm trying to play this keyboard version of Hillsong's "This Is Our God" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1jZ1Ux9XOU). The chords listing is:

Intro-verse: E - G#m - C#m - A
Chorus:B - E/G# - A - F#mB/D# - E/G# - A
Instrumental - bridge:E - B - F#m - C#m - A - E (also in video description)

But I can't seem to get around what the left and right hand plays. Plus the video is too fast and unclear to work out the notes :(

Please could someone help me work out what notes to play/how to play them?
Basically, the user gave a list of chord names and I don't know what the left and right hand plays - also on some he doesn't hold 3 down, but alternates between a few!

Thanks

A. To play a piano chord, you need to find out which scale the chord belongs to. For example C chord would belong to the C major scale and Cmin chord would belong to the c minor scale. Lets use C chord as an example. We start off by playing the C note on the keyboard. Then, we miss a white not, but play the next one. We end up having one white note in between the notes we are playing. You should end up playing an E on a C major chord. Then we miss the next note after E, but play the one after that, G. That is a C or C major chord. However, when it comes to other chords we need to take in the key signature of the scale. C minor has an Eb in the key signature, so instead of playing C E G we play C Eb G. I know that probably made no sense so check out this very helpful website. http://www.8notes.com/piano_chord_chart/
I think you would benefit from piano lessons. A tutor can help you play the song and work out the chords. Hope I helped with my long-winded explanation!

A. I'm still learning, but, this is what I know:

Do you mean d minor? And, is it just the basic chord? If so:

dm is: d, f, a. Inverted once: a, d, f, Inverted twice: f, a, d

D major: D, F#, A. Inverted once: A, D, F# Inverted twice: F#, A, D

G7 (major right?): G, B, D, F#

A7: A, C#, E, G#

E7: E, G# B, D#

D7: D, F#, A, C#

B7: B, D#, F#, A#

Your best bet is to learn the scales. A seventh chord is usually a basic chord with the seventh letter of the scale added to the end.

You can pick up some "cheat sheets" at music stores, and I would also think you can get theory books, which would help, if you're not taking lessons.
