   In the outro, the first time you play it, it's just acoustic guitar.
   The second time you play it the electric guitar joins in and then
   you repeat it over and over again using both guitars.
    The 'ooh ooh' sound I think is just someone singing. But if you
   wanna play it on your guitar you can play it like this:
   
                   E|---------------|
                   B|-10b12--10b12--|
                   G|---------------|  b = bend up
                   D|---------------|
                   A|---------------|
                   E|---------------|
