Time signature is 4/4.
Tempo is Q=105 bpm. (Hence, the backbeat is on beat 3.)
This notation style is the chords-in-bars style:
One bar is notated like “| chord-name |” read from left to right.
The symbol “%” means to continue on the same chord as before.

[FOREPLAY]
(In the music video edit, the opening 4 bars in this foreplay section are
extended to what adds up to ten bars of 4/4 bars and one bar of 3/4.)

[VERSES 1 + 2 + 3]
(The piano voicings include the low note “a” [A2] as a recurring bass note.
This creates the indistinctness of the bass register, as the bass guitar
then mostly stays above that A2, up in the low-mid register.)
