Either repeat last line and finish or repeat chorus and fade.
This is not exactly the way it is played on the record. An interesting
dynamic is to raise the third verse
and
chorus by ½ tone, e.g. from C to Db and then to finish with the final
(repeat) chorus raised by an
additional
tone, e.g. D to E.
It’s a great ‘feel-good’ song which also has a great message. Have fun.
