Intro: I play D (7th fret) and then G (open) on G string to open, before chords. It's what she plays on piano.

For an optional finish, to match how the chords go an octave up on piano, I do this:
12--12 12--10 12--10 10--10 x-- x x-- x

The bridge contains a progression of several chords simultaneously to add drama. I picked the ones that worked best with the melody, the ones closest to what's on piano, and ignored the string part as best I could.
