The intro is pretty solid, except I found an exact match for the fourth note, the bar 7th fret. The actual chord, from Db down, is 7-7-11-x-x-x

Ah, and I found out that the third note, the bar 8th fret, is 8-8-10-x-x-x. It's such a fun intro to play, it's a shame it's not more involved in the song
