It was probably a one off to let the singer hit a kind of sliding note over a couple of lyrics. This song’s been covered by lots of artists, they each likely changed things to their own preferences.
When I was researching it, I was amazed at the number of covers that were listed. I can see local club bands doing it because the Key and chords are simple and beg for an arrangement that meets the band or vocalist genre or style.
I don't know what it is but not a big fan of this one. Gmaj seems like a better choice

I love this song. The English band Everything But The Girl did a nice cover in the late 80s.
