you might be having trouble with the counting because think about it, the first part is down-up-down-rest and the second part is rest-up-down-up
so if you put those together, you get:
down-up-down-rest-rest-up-down-up
you're resting two beats in a row. that might be confusing you.

Thanks!
I've almost got it. In the second part when I do rest-up-down-up like you suggested, the first time sounds PERFECT... but then I immediately fuck it up because after rest-up-down-up, I am "up", and need to be down in order to continue (I think) to repeat this. When I try to move down I immediately screw up my timing and it sounds bad again. I tried just continuing from where I left off (up), and still screw it up.
As a rule my timnig is excellent. I struggle finding the right chords sometimes but never struggle finding the rhythm. Until this fucking song... sigh.
