Since I guess we r in

the same time zone, I'll try to help at once, David will point u out better
the shake starts on the 5th bar of the 6th chorus, right after the notes you wrote
(right on the 1st measure of the second line of the 6th chorus).
it last 1 bar and 3/4
On this notation chart:

on the 2nd page under shake technique you can see how it is notated.
