Default Help with Crazy Little thing called love

My son and I play this song and he’s doing Brian May’s part. On the first break/solo I’m having trouble finding chords to strum to keep with him. We are playing drop D in Key of D. Any suggestion on what I can play in background (strumming)?

Thanks jed

The chords in the guitar solo (original key of D) are:

|Bb - - - |Bb - - - |D - G - |D - - - |
|Bb - - - |Eb - - - |E - A - |F _____|
|. D Db C - |.A Ab G - |E7.....|A_____|

The guitar solo basically finishes at the beginning of bar 9 (bar 8 is a break), then you get those quarter-note triplet rhythms in bars 9-10-11.
