I strum the intro something like this : (all downward strums except
the third chord which is strummed upward). I don't know what chord it is.
As you can see, I'm pretty hopeless at tabulature but I'm sure if you hear 
the song, you can figure what the tab below means! 
                                        
        --2-2-3---2-2-3-
        --3-3-3---3-3-3-
        --2-2-2---2-2-2-
        ----------------
        ----------------
        ----------------

There is also another chord which is like a D so I'll call it D*.
It is played by :
                        ---2---
                        ---2---
                        ---2---
                        -------
                        -------
                        -------
