Play only the root on the first beat of each change: D (bars 1–2, Dm), Bb (bars 3–4, Bb), F (bars 5–6, F), C (bars 7–8, C). Keep counting through every bar that holds the same chord; the form resolves back to D.
When each chord arrives, land on its third and hold it for a beat: F over Dm, D over Bb, A over F, E over C. Then repeat with the seventh (see the table) to hear how the line leads into the next chord.
Play D Minor Pentatonic (D F G A C) up and down in frets 9–13, one note per beat at 171 BPM. Start and finish on D: 6th string fret 10, or 5th string fret 5 for the next position up.
