The same song with its structure line reversed — 0 1 0 1 0 2 becomes 2 0 1 0 1 0 — so it reorders to bridge, verse, chorus, verse, chorus, verse. Same sections, same instruments, nothing rebuilt; only the order changed — the way reversing a melody flips its notes back to front.

One move, on the whole song

This is the song as written, reversed.

The structure is a single line of numbers — one per section — read through three parts (0 verse, 1 chorus, 2 bridge):

as-written: 0 1 0 1 0 2     # verse chorus verse chorus verse bridge
reversed:   2 0 1 0 1 0     # bridge verse chorus verse chorus verse

Reverse the line and the song reverses with it: the closing bridge moves to the front, and the verse it used to open on now ends the piece. Same sections, same instruments, nothing rebuilt — only the order moved.

It’s the exact move you’d use to play a melody back to front. The difference is the scale: here the “notes” being reversed are whole sections, so what flips is the architecture of the song.
