vieurd: “The general chord progression is F-Csus4-Bbsus4-F-Csus4
John seems strum the sixth string on the F chord and the fifth and
sixth strings on the Csus4 and Bbsus4 somewhat lightly in order to
place emphasis on the guitar melody.”

*This is what he sings in the recording.
According to John, “The final line actually goes
three fours lined up in a row
I got people to see, I got people that wanna see me
so that the last verse has a "one two three four"
except that the third one is "three fours," O young John tryna be all clever”
