I've got it working!

• I upped the tempo to 320 from 80 for two bars.
• I used this chord format:

G..,G. G..,G.. | G..,G. G.

• And then I returned to 80 and a chord of G. to give me a couple of bars of silence at the end of the song.

Here's what the result sounds like:

Thanks so much for the help! There's still some work to be done on the song, but this brings it a whole lot closer than it was.
