[Am] This is the greatest and best song in the world... Tribute.
[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, [Am] And the beast was done. [Am] He asked us: "Be you angels?" (prep for high A to be sung) [Am] And we said, "Nay. We are but men!" ROCK!
[Chorus 2] [Am] This is not [Am] The [G] Greatest Song in the [Am] World. (riff) [Am] No, [Am] this is just a [G] tribute. [Am] [Am] Couldn't remember [Am] The [G] Greatest Song in the [Am] World. (riff) [Am] No, [Am] this is a [G] tribute, [Am] oh. (vocals allude to Amaj interesting)
