VERSE 1
   D                          Bb/D
   High above the mucky-muck, castle made of stew
   D                         Bb/D
       There sits Wonderboy, sitting oh so proudly
   D5                 D/C#                           Bm          A4  G  A

   D                                                 Bb/D
   Now it's time for me to tell you about Young Nastyman
                               D                                  Bb/D

                                   G                       D/F#
   How 'bout the power to kill a yak from 200 yards away...
        Em            A7           A7 
   With mind bullets!    That's teleki   -   nesis, Kyle
   G/A                    A7
       How 'bout the power,    to move you?

VERSE 3 (CHORDS AS VERSE 1)

   History of Wonderboy, and Young NastyMan

   Riggah-go-goo, riggah-goo-goo

   A secret to be told, a gold chest to be bold

   And blasting forth in three-part harmony

VERSES 4
         D
   Well, Wonderboy and Young Nastyman joined forces;
   Bb/D                                            D
   they formed a band the likes of which had never been seen,
                               Bb/D
   And they called themselves Tenacious D. That's right,
   D5              D/C#       Bm           A4  G   A        C  G  D
   Me! And KG! ("That's me"),    we're now Tena   -   cious D!

   Come fly with me, fly!

   Slice his throat, and grab his scrote

   You take the high road, I'll take the low
