In the key of D the notes are D F# A D. A guitarist would place his hand to form a D major triad and pick the low D (bass) note cleanly on the downbeat of one, begin the down stroke to sound each note of the arpeggio on the "and after one", and the bottom of that stroke is the downbeat of two landing on the D an octave up and the up stroke the "and after two". Three and four are just light rhythm. I've seen guys do that a million times but don't ask me the fret or hand positions.

lol. Dont worry Bob. I wont. That "rake" is pretty common guitar thing, often done muted in RnR tracks of yesteryear and its pretty close to what the Piano is doing plus the octave root note.
MAny thanks Bob
