D--3---3--3--------------3--3---6---6--6--------------6--6---]
A--3---3--3--x--x--x--x--1--1---6---6--6--x--x--x--x--4--4---]
E--1---1--1--x--x--x--x---------4---4--4--x--x--x--x---------]

I know u have to mute it or something but it just doesnt sound right.

Any tips?

The x's are muted strings, you just pretty much rest your fingers/hand on the strings, and apply NO pressure. The reason those x's are there is because you have to keep a rhytmn, just keep strumming, mute them strings, and then jump on the other parts. Muting strings can sound really good if you master it correctly, generally people mute the strings as they're changing chords/powerchords with their pinky fingers.
