Song Structure & Chord Progression
- Verse: G – C – G – D (repeat)

No separate bridge — the “sha la la” outro vamp is an extended chorus tag, not a new section.
Strumming Pattern
Bright, bouncy D - DU - UDU throughout. Muted “chunk” on the off-beat during the “sha la la” section gives it the classic feel.
