There's a modification of this part in the octave later on in the song.

These are the correct "base" notes but I can't hear what David is actually playing. If you wanna play with it, try messing around the 5th of each note (i.e. F/C or G/D).

You have to do one hell of a pull off on your E string to make it sound really good.
