Yellow Ledbetter

I am learning Yellow Ledbetter on the guitar and everything is going good so far , but can someone help me with a chord and show it , I play it this way :
e: 7
b: 7
g: 8
d: 9
a: 7
E: 7
It's the chord in the intro , where you first play 9p7 on the hig e , and then roll into that chord ...
Well I play it that way , but it's kinda hard to do it on time because I first slide with my thumb on the low E to 7 , and if I take that barré chord I must move my thumb all the way down to grab the chord properly , so I lose much time that way. ( Hope you now what I mean ...)
I see people playing it without barre to , but how do you keep your thumb over the neck , and still be able to fret the e and b string on the 7th fret ( bcause you first do a pull of from 9)

You don't need to play the A string. This SHOULD help with the thumb. I think I had the same problem. Mainly, it's all about practice.
