Outline:

 This is a very standard “three chord shuffle.”   After the intro, you notice the dynamics drop, as the band plays a bit softer.  Then comes a chorus that is played harder, followed by another verse, another chorus, and so on.  The  chord changes are the same for verses and choruses.  After the fifth chorus,  we repeat a chorus, and you can hear a drum fill that sort of builds on snare and floor tom going into the “E” chord of the last line, setting up the ending.
