Verse - the rhythm for this descending guitar part is pretty hard to figure out. 
The trick is to land on the D chord on the last strum of the second G chord (7th fret) 
in this second 'bar' and only play the D chord once, then move on to the next G chord 
at the 3rd fret.

At the end of the 2nd verse, before starting the Bm-Gmaj7 section, 
you play this part at the end of the above 'quick, bright' part.
