Tribute - Tenacious D
I know there is another chord score of this song already but this one is a correction of
other one. The correction is that they play Am, G and then F instead of Am again about
the way through the song.
Thanks guys!
Am
This is the greatest and best song in the world... Tribute.
Am
Long time ago me and my brother Kyle here,
Am
We was hitchhikin' down a long and lonesome road.
Am
All of a sudden, there shined a shiny demon...
Am
In the middle of the road.
Am
And he said:
Play the A string but palm mute it.
"Play the best song in the world, or I'll eat your souls."
Am
Well me and Kyle, we looked at each other,
Am
And we each said... "Okay"
AmG
And we played the first thing that came to our heads,
F
Just so happened to be,
AmGF
The Best Song in the World, it was The Best Song in the World.
DF
Look into my eyes and it's easy to see
CG
One and one make two, two and one make three,
F
It was destiny.
DF
Once every hundred-thousand years or so,
CG
When the sun doth shine and the moon doth glow
F
And the grass don't grow...
Am
Needless to say, the beast was stunned.
Am
Whip-crack went his schwumpy tail,
Am
And the beast was done.
Am
He asked us: "Be you angels?"
Am
And we said, "Nay. We are but men!"
ROCK!
DFCG
Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh-ah-ah,
F
Ohhh, whoah, ah-whoah-oh!
AmGF
This is not The Greatest Song in the World.
AmGF
No, this is just a tribute.
AmGF
Couldn't remember The Greatest Song in the World.
AmGF
No, this is a tribute, oh.
AmGDF
To The Greatest Song in the World, All right!
AmGDF
It was The Greatest Song in the World, All right!
AmG
It was the best muthafuckin' song
DF
The greatest song in the world.
Solo: Am - G - D - F (x2)
AmG
And the peculiar thing is this my friends:
DF
The song we sang on that fateful night,
AmGDF
It didn't actually sound anything like this song.
AmGDF
This is just a tribute! You gotta' believe me!
AmGDF
And I wish you were there! Just a matter of opinion.
AmG
Ah, fuck! Good God, God lovin',
DF
So surprised to find you can't stop it.
AmGDFEFGEFF
All right! All right!
Tenacious D - Tribute Chords :: indexed at Ultimate Guitar.
Tenacious D is an American satirical rock duo formed by musicians and actors Kyle Gass and Jack Black in Los Angeles, California in 1994. Their music fuses vulgar absurdist comedy with rock music in a style that critics have described as "mock rock".[1][2]
Tenacious D's music showcases Black's theatrical vocal delivery and Gass' acoustic guitar playing abilities.[3] Their songs discuss the duo's purported musical and sexual prowess, as well as their friendship and cannabis usage. Their debut self-titled album features absurd and humorous sketches.[4] Music critics have compared the storyteller-style lyrics of their songs to lyrics of rock opera.[5][6]
The band first gained popularity in 1999 when they starred in the self-titled Tenacious D, a television series on US cable network HBO, in which Black and Gass attempted to establish themselves as the "Greatest Band on Earth".[1] The series airs occasionally on Comedy Central and is available on their DVD, The Complete Masterworks. In addition, they have since recorded two albums, and starred in their own movie, Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny.
