The dance above matches count for count with the verse and the with the chorus. However, the counts that connect the verse and chorus change a couple of times, so the connectors vary a couple of times. The hint that makes it easy to remember: Every time you end the dance facing the back wall, the connector is the same (step back right, hold, left, hold). Every time you end the dance facing the front wall (just twice!), there will be a variation. The first time you end facing front, there's a musical bridge. The second time you end facing front, you just add one more set of "step, holds." Then it all fits!
