Then back to D for a few bars.
Then once through verse and chorus, with no words, and
with distorted guitar on top.

Then back to bridge exactly as above
Then chorus 2x.

When strumming on D, there is a little riff that is
D/E/F#/F#/G/F# (notes, not chords).  If you're playing
D in the second fret, you can try to pick it while
holding the chord, like this:

E---2------0---2---2---4h--2p
B---3---3--------------------
G---1------------------------
D----------------------------
A----------------------------
E----------------------------

Try to keep the G and B strings from getting muted so
the chord continues to sound.  You may find easier
places to play up the neck if you're on an electric.
