This is the greatest and best song in the world... Tribute.
Verse 1Am
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:
(strum palm muted)
A5
"Play the best song in the world, or I'll eat your souls."
(back to normal picking)
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.
Chorus 1DF
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...
Verse 2Am
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!
