The strumming pattern that fits is the driving 4/4: d – d – d u d u. The groove sits around 120 bpm, a medium pace. On this page the song is in C major. The chords put it squarely at the skilled level. Drive the backbeat and push into the horn-section hits on the chorus.

Tried playing along to the music and it didn’t quite fit. I did fine a tutorial on YouTube that was perfect. Has the chords and everything. Check it out. https://youtu.be/MkxPSzzXvUI
