This song has the same chord progression throughout which makes it easy to learn.  The only difference between the verse and the chorus is a few additional melodic notes in the chorus.  The verses can all be played on the low E string.  I believe that's how it was played in the original recording because you can hear the finger slides between notes.

This song popped up on a stream recently.  It's a familiar Howard Jones minor hit from the Summer of 1985 that barely broke the top 20.  After the melodic intro, the bouncy bass line jumped out at me.  Seemed like it might be fun to try to learn.

Most songs have a simple line on the verse and something a little more funky on the chorus.   This song, it's reversed.  The syncopated rhythm on the verse contrasts with simple quarter notes on G during the chorus.
