Visions of Vic Reeves doing it in the 'club' style... As has been said easier with the guitar higher on strap or go mad altogether & get that foot up on the monitor
So instead of D F# Higher D for the first bit, I'm literally just going D A higher D and back down again, using the open high e string open for the same kind of effect.
Middle and ring fingers stay on G string 14th fret and B string 15th fret respectively. Then your index finger just goes D string 12th (note D), D string 11th fret (note C#), A string 14th fret (note , E string 15th fret (note G). Changing each time the chord does,
Hope that helps and makes sense

I play a Les Paul, and rather than sit down I adopt the "Slash solo pose" and hold the guitar upright! It's so much easier plus the crowd think it's harder to do when actually its so much easier!
I also don't play the wide stretch in the bridge, I'm picking right notes around the chords but don't think that part of the song is as recognisable as the main riff. Chorus I'm playing same riff as Danny but down around 2nd, 3rd, 5th frets on high E and B strings for first part then up around 10th/12th frets area for synth bits.
So I'd play Dannys intro and work something comfortable for the bridge, that'll do you unless Brandon Flowers actually shows up. Bet he can't even play it

That gives you that D against the open E in every position.
There’s a few YouTube videos of it.
Would rather play other songs but there’s rarely a night that someone doesn’t request it…
"Play Mr Brightside!"
"Fuck off."
