We're off to never-never land
Note : This tab for the solo is greatly inspired by the original
tab of the solo, and many thanks to the author of that tab. It
Was quite accurate but wrong in a couple of places, basiclly here
I changed it to be as close as possible to Kirk.
For the solo, James plays the main riff twice, then his part of
the prechorus, and his part of the chorus. Its amazing how well
the solo fits in.

Nice approach - when you want to imply G chord play melody on E string so by virtue of fretting
the open G rings - then want to imply D, move melody to B string that naturally mutes the G string
and the low D string rings more
With A just play chord down the neck
Also really helps to be in open D tuning
[Violin Line 2 - relative to capo - note you can add trills and hammer ons and pulloffs and sounds great
stick to right string though for each chord]

[Verse 1]
[Dm7] Looking back on [G7] when I, [Dm7] was a little
[G7] nappy headed [Dm7] boy. [G7] [Dm7] [G7]
[Dm7] Then my only [G7] worry, [Dm7] was for Christmas;
[G7] what would be my [Dm7] toy. [G7] [Dm7] [G7]
[Bridge 1]
[A7] Even though we [B7] sometimes
[Em7] would not get a [Gm6-355353] thing;
[A7] We were happy [B7] with the
[Em7] joy the day would [A7#5-5x566x] bring.
[Verse 2]
[Dm7] Sneaking out the [G7] back door,
To [Dm7] hang out with those [G7] hoodlum friends of
[Dm7] mine. [G7] [Dm7] [G7]
[Dm7] Greeted at the [G7] back door,
With; "boy, I [Dm7] thought I told you [G7] not to go out-
[Dm7] side?" [G7] [Dm7] [G7]
[Bridge 2]
[A7] Tryin' your best to [B7] bring the
[Em7] water to you [Gm6] eyes.
[A7] Thinkin' it might [B7] stop her, from
[Em7] whoopin' your be- [A7#5] hind.
[Chorus 1]
I wish those [Dm7] days, [G7] could,
[Dm7] come back once [G7] more,
Why did those [Dm7] days, [G7] e
[Dm7] ver have to [G7] go?
I wish those [Dm7] days, [G7] could,
[Dm7] come back once [G7] more,
Why did those [Dm7] days, [G7] e -

[Verse 3]
[Dm7] Brother says he's [G7] tellin',
[Dm7] 'Bout you playing [G7] doctor with that
[Dm7] girl. [G7] [Dm7] [G7]
[Dm7] Just don't tell; I'll [G7] give you,
[Dm7] Anything you [G7] want in this whole wide
[Dm7] world. [G7] [Dm7] [G7]
[Bridge 3]
[A7] Mama gives you [B7] money,
[Em7] for Sunday [Gm6] school,
[A7] You trade yours for [B7] candy,
[Em7] after church is [A7#5] through.
[Verse 4]
[Dm7] Smokin' ciga- [G7] rettes and,
And [Dm7] writing something [G7] nasty on the
[Dm7] wall, [G7] (you nasty [Dm7] boy!) [G7]
[Dm7] Teacher sends you [G7] to the
[Dm7] principals of [G7] fice down the [Dm7] hall. [G7]
[Bridge 4]
[A7] You grow up and [B7] learn that,
[Em7] kinda thing ain't [Gm6] right.
[A7] But while you were [B7] doin' it; it
[Em7] sure felt outta [A7#5] sight.
[Chorus 2]
I wish those [Dm7] days, [G7] could,
[Dm7] come back once [G7] more,
Why did those [Dm7] days, [G7] e -
[Dm7] ver have to [G7] go?

[Verse 1] (no drums)
[Am] Long time ago me and my brother Kyle here, (riff)
[Am] We was hitchhikin' down a long and lonesome road. (riff)
[Am] All of a sudden, there shined a shiny demon... (riff)
[Am] In the middle of the road. .... And he said:
(strum palm muted)
[A5] "Plaaay 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"
[Am] And we played the first thing that [G] came to our heads,
[F] Just so happened to be,
[Am] The Best Song in the [G] World, it was [F] The Best Song in the World.
[Chorus 1] (Drums in)
[D] Look into my eyes and it's [F] easy to see .. One and
[C] one make two, two and [G] one make three, It was (drop snare)
[F] destiny. (snare pick up)
[D] Once every hundred-thousand [F] years or so, When the
[C] sun doth shine and the [G] moon doth glow And the
[F] grass don't grow...
[Verse 2] (drums just bass drum)
[Am] Needless to say, the beast was stunned.
[Am] Whip-crack went his schwumpy tail,
