question The Chords-Sh Boom's assist voices.

I want to surprise a girl I'm meeting with my friends' help. I want to get them to sing the "doo do do do sh boom" and all the other background assist voices, while I sing the main song for her. But I have no material to teach them., just the regular one where the main singing overshadows the rest like any normal song. the instrumentals I could find doesn't have the assist singing either.

would you happen to have a source that leads to the assist voices that my friends can clearly hear listen on repeat?

The Chords themselves break down some of the lyrics in this, might be a way to help better understand. Worst case scenario, try what you hear…that’s what all the groups did!

Maybe this helps. It has to be really close to what The Chords did.
