Play only the root on the first beat of each change: D (bars 1–2, D5), F (bar 3, F5), E (bar 3, beat 3, E5), D (bars 4–5, D5), F (bar 6, F5), G (bar 6, beat 3, G5), F (bar 7, F5), E (bar 7, beat 3, E5), D (bar 8, D5). Keep counting through every bar that holds the same chord; the form resolves back to D.
These are power chords, so there is no third to target. Alternate root and fifth on each change: D–A over D5, F–C over F5, E–B over E5, G–D over G5.
