This song is yet another four chord song, but with some embellishments to avoid dry repetition. Feel free to substitute power chords in place of the full chords as that will make it easier to switch between various groups of strings. Be ready for the G and B chords in the chorus which will break up the four chord progression that takes up most of the song.
