At least, this is how you’d play it on guitar. He plays it an octave higher.

I think one of the guitars keeps the ska going in the chorus, but I
can’t be bothered typing out that again!

When both guitars are playing E (at the end) the second guitar plays
constant downstrokes – that than 2 together then a pause – just to
help you get a rhythm for it)
Pre Chorus 2 – same.
Chorus 2 – same.
Interlude - Same as verse one and pre chorus, but no bass. Also goes into 3/4 time
Chorus X2
That’s It! It really is a beast of a song. I think there’s 3
guitars, but, that’s the general way it goes. The only bit I’m
unsure about it the end of the Chorus. I know that those are the
bass notes. Not sure about if that’s what the guitars play though.
I’m pretty sure the rest is right. I tried to tab the way that the
ska bits are played, but, they aren’t hard to get the hang of.
