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
