When he sings "The Indians want back the Bronx" until "To hang on," just play this repeatedly:
e|----| |--------|
B|----| |--------|
G|-14-| |-9-9-b9-|
D|-x--|then |-9-9-b9-|(he quickly keeps playing and bending this chord up
A|-12-| |-7-7-b7-|until the beginning of the chorus)
E|----| |--------|
Both guitars don't play anything for one part of the chorus
Then play the intro/chorus after doing a pick scrape
Guitar 1 plays the same thing for the intro 6 times and ends on:
e|-----|
B|-----|
G|-11~-|
D|-11~-|
A|-9-~-|
E|-----|
Guitar 2 plays the same thing for the chorus once then it changes to:
e|----------------------------------------121212---------1212--------------------|
B|----141414-1212~-----141414-1212~--------------14-1212------1414-121212h14-----|

G|------------------14~-------------------14----------------------1414---------14~-|

Then guitar 2 plays the same chorus part twice and ends on 14 on the G string and slowly slides down
