Okay, so nobody was tabbing this song, so I decided to give it a try, most of it
I am totally unsure of, especially the ska guitar part, but i did my best and if
you could post corrections that would help, thanks.

  Intro:
     Em     D         G     A         C     D         G     B
e|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----5---4---4-------0---2---2-------2---4---4-------5---4---4----|
A|--7---5---5---5---2---4---4---4---3---5---5---5---5---6---6---6--|
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
     Em     D         G     A         C     D         G     G
e|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-----------------------------------------------------------------|

A|--7---5---5---5---2---4---4---4---3---5---5---5---5---5---5---5--|
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|

  Then the ska guitar comes in:
      Em     D        G      A        C      D        G      B
e|----3------2----------------------------------------3------2-------------|
B|----5------3--------3------5--------5------7--------3------4-------------|
G|----4------2--------4------6--------5------7--------4------4-------------|
D|--------------------5------7--------5------7--------5------4-------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
      Em     D        G      A        C      D        G      G
e|----3------2----------------------------------------3------3-------------|
B|----5------3--------3------5--------5------7--------3------3-------------|
G|----4------2--------4------6--------5------7--------4------4-------------|
D|--------------------5------7--------5------7--------5------5-------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|

   You basically play this all through the first half of the song (the 
   intro, verse & chorus) except for the prechorus, where you don't play 
   anything.

   When you get to "And off of the blocks" it changes: 
e|------------------------------------------------------------------|

D|--5-----5-----5------5------5------4-----4-----4------4------4----| (x8)
A|----7-7---7-7---7--7---7--7---7------5-5---5-5---5--5---5--5---5--|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------|
