Questions about I'm Yours on simple bass

What key is I'm Yours in?

G major. The whole song loops the classic I–V–vi–IV — G (I), D (V), Em (vi) and C (IV). There is no capo, so guitar, piano and bass all play these same chords at the same pitch.

What does the bass play in I'm Yours?

The simplest line follows the root of each chord — G, D, E, C — around the same I–V–vi–IV loop the whole song repeats. With no capo these are the true pitches, identical to what the guitar and piano outline.
