Tribute
Tenacious D
Am Thing (x2)
Am Thing
This is the greatest and best song in the world...
...Tribute
A long time ago, me and my brother Kyle here
We was hitchhikin' down a long and lonesome road
All of a sudden, there shined a shiny demon
In the middle of the road...
Am (stacatto muted)
And he said... "Play the best song in the world
Or I'll eat your souls..."
Am Thing
Well me and Kyle, we looked at each other
And we each said... "Okay."
Am (5th fret) G
And we played the first thing that came to our heads
F
Just so happened to be
The best song in the world
It was the best song in the world
D2 F
Look into my eyes and it's easy to see
C G
One and one make two, two and one make three
Fmaj7
It was destiny...
Once every hundred-thousand years, or so
When the sun doth shine and the moon doth glow
And the grass doth grow-oh...
Am Thing
Needless to say, the beast was stunned
A whip-crack with his wippy tail, and the beast was done
He asked us, (snort) "Be you angels?"
And we said, "Nay. We are but men. Rock!"
D2 F
Ahhh, ahhh
C G
Ahhh-ah-ah
Fmaj7
Ohhh, whoah... ah-whoah-oh!
A2 G A2
This is not the greatest song in the world
No, this is just a tribute
Couldn't remember the greatest song in the world
A2 G A
No, no... this is a tribute
A2 A2/G D2/F# F
Oh... to the greatest song in the world

The song we sang on that fateful night
A2 A2/G D/F#
It didn't actually sound anything like this song!

F A2
This is just a tribute
A2/G D2/F#
