There's multiple instrumentals on this part, but to me it sounds like 2 guitars are 
a 2nd version of the solo which goes like this:

Lyrics:

I was locked all day in the summer heat,
In a small brown house in suburban streets,
My skateboard and my shit guitar,
I dreamed all day that they would get me far,
My dad would ask me about my grades,
The ass hole sports that I never played,
And then I'd ask about the girls he'd date,
Behind our backs when mom would stay up late

It was then when I turned 16,
Got kicked out of school and so it seemed,
That things were closing in and ready to blow,
My dad moved out about that year or so,
It took an hour to start a punk rock band,
To offset my fucked up family land,
And as I helped my mom would start to cry,
I swore ourselves a better life

If I had a chance for another try,
I wouldn't change a thing,
Its made me all and who I am inside,
And if I could thank God that I am here and that I am alive,
And every day I wake I tell myself a little harmless lie,
The whole wide world is mine

The summer's gone the years have passed,
My friends have changed a few did last,
The smallest dreams got pushed aside,
The largest ones that changed my life,
And all I'd wish for has come and passed,
From rock'n'roll to love and cash,
It's all success if its what you need,
Do what you like and do it honestly

If I had a chance for another try,
I wouldn't change a thing,
Its made me all and who I am inside,
And if I could thank God that I am here and that I am alive,
And every day I wake I tell myself a little harmless lie,
The whole wide world is mine

Yo-oh-oh-oh
Yo-oh-oh
Yo-oh-oh-oh
Yo-oh-oh
Yo-oh-oh-oh
Yo-oh-oh
Yo-oh-oh-oh
Yo-oh-oh

If I had a chance for another try,
I wouldn't change a thing,
Its made me all and who I am inside,
And if I could thank God that I am here and that I am alive,
And every day I wake I tell myself a little harmless lie,
The whole wide world is mine

If I had a chance for another try,
I wouldn't change a thing,
Its made me all and who I am inside,
And if I could thank God that I am here and that I am alive,
And every day I wake I tell myself a little harmless lie,
The whole wide world is mine


This was my first tab, it's atleast 99% correct, assuming I made a couple mistakes here
there. Hope it helps :)
