Does With You use a well-known chord progression?

Yes! In E♭ major: The hopscotch progression (I → IV → V → vi) shows up in the pre-chorus at 0:53 and the verse at 1:57. Three rising chord roots give this loop a lift before it hops back around. The three-chord I–IV–V progression (IV → V → I) shows up in the pre-chorus at 0:44 and 0:49. Three chords, plenty of mileage: home, a lift away, and the pull to come back.
