Someone like Zapped can probably give a better explanation. I was always confused by this songs chord progression till I watched and read Justin's excellent lesson on Demystify the Minor Scales and the penny finally dropped for me. So the song cycles from natural minor to melodic minor through its entire chord progression.

The cure - sharpen the 7th (of the natural minor) which technically could make it either the harmonic minor 1, 2, b3, 4, 5, b6, 7 or the melodic minor (but as we play the D major as well, I think it is more correct to say melodic minor). Then comes the E which has the same hiccup D has in that it should be minor (in the natural minor). 1, 2, b3, 4, 5, 6, 7į switches back to the natural minor as the 6th flattens again (compared to the major scale). The only minor scale type that fits is the melodic version of A minor i.e. Then we go to D which is not in the key of Am (natural minor) - it should be a Dm which is the IV chord of the progression - notice in the natural minor the 6th note is flattened (compared to the major scale) and that is the 3rd note of the D chord thus making the D a minor to get a D major you need to sharpen the 6th (of the natural minor). The chords used are Am, C, D, F & E - commencing on Am thus suggesting the song is in the key of Am, it progresses to C which is fine as C major is also in the key of Am.
