To make it musically interesting, he changes keys 5 times in that song. Remember how he hums before singing - that gets the new key into his head first.

The key changes are not necessary for campfire songs. Average audience would not know or care. |

Here's an experiment if you know "Gentle on My Mind". Much of that melody resides on repeated notes, yet the chords change underneath them. Play it without those changes, they are not absolutely necessary, and see how it sounds. Then play the chords as written and see how much more interesting it sounds. There are many ways you can add interest to a song: rhythm, unusual chords, a key change, major/minor mode changes, play it way higher or lower on the fretboard, change or add harmonies, bass runs, obligato, incorporate unusual instruments, tempo changes.... it's a long list.
