The [Dsus2 D Dsus2 D] progression at the end of each sentence
is kind of tricky to get the rhythm right. Once you've
got that rhythm down it makes the part "This one's for the girls"
a little easier; it's just that same rhythm.
Just play along with the song; you'll work it out:)
(The Dsus2's in the middle of a sentence are quickly hammered
to the D and can be ignored and played as just D's if ya want.)

I think some of the sus2 chords should actually be sus4 as the D chord alternates between the 4/3(regular note)/2 notes.Just a suggestion. Nice work on the rest of the chart though. It all looks accurate. Well done! :)

So I changed some of the D'2 to 4's like suggested (thanks Derek82) and I think throughout the whole song you could actually play the D4 in this progression [Dsus2 D Dsus4 D]- instead of what I have posted. I'm not gonna change it, but play it that way if ya wanna:)
