It consists of two different guitar samples. Only powerchords will be played. First is played on 3rd fret G,
then, I wrote // for two muted 16th strums before the next G (just lift your left hand slightly), F on 1st,
C on 3rd. For the last 4 strums C C F# G, I use the pickup switch to give it a different sound, go up to 8th 
fret C, then slide from F# to G on 3rd fret. Do this every time C C F# G appears in verses and chorus.
I recommend using a drum machine at 118 bpm or use this drum video I found which has loud drums to jam with:

Cold Gcoolin at a bar, and I'm lookin for some action
But like Mike Jagger said, I can't get no satisfaction
The Ggirls are all around, but none of them want to get with me
My threads are fresh and I'm lookin def, yoC, what'Cs up wiF#th GL-o-see?
The Ggirls is all jockin at the other end of the bar
Havin drinks with some no-name chump, when they know that I'm the star
So I Ggot up and strolled over to the other side of the cantina
I asked the guy, "Why you so fly?" he said, "Funky Cold Medina"

This Gbrother told me a secret on how to get more chicks
Put a little Medina in your glass, and the girls'll come real quick
It's Gbetter than any alcohol or aphrodisiac
A couple of sips of this love potion, and Cshe'll Cbe on yF#our Glap
So I Ggave some to my dog when he began to beg
Then he licked his bowl and he looked at me and did the wild thing on my leg
He Gused to scratch and bite me, before he was much much meaner
But now all the poodles run to my house for the Funky Cold Medina

I Gwent up to this girl, she said, "Hi, my name is Sheena"
I thought she'd be good to go with a little Funky Cold Medina
She Gsaid, "I'd like a drink, " I said, "Ehm - ok, I'll go get it"
Then a couple sips she cold licked her lips, and I knCew that Cshe was F#witGh it
So I Gtook her to my crib, and everything went well as planned
But when she got undressed, it was a big old mess, Sheena was a man
So I threw him out, I don't fool around with no Oscar Meyer wiener
You must be sure that the girl is pure for the Funky Cold Medina

GBack in the saddle, lookin for a little affection

I took my date to the Hilton for Medina and some dinner
She Ghad a few drinks, I'm thinkin soon what I'll be gettin
Instead she started talkin 'bout plans for our weddin
I said, G"Wait, slow down, love, not so fast says, I'll be seein ya"
That's why I found you don't fool around with the Funky Cold Medina
