Since this song goes off in various different directions
I have added in the time when the certain part is played
if it is not an obvious riff.

Intro/Verse -

“Play the best song in the world or I’ll eat your souls”

Chorus - “And we played the first thing . . .”
-------------------3-----------------1--|
-1-----------------3-----------------1--|
-2-----------------0-----------------2--|
-2-----------------0-----------------3--|
-0-----------------2-----------------3--|

Then go into the verse riff

Then go into Chorus

Then it goes into the little scat part

Then the solo . . . I’ll have that soon

Then the chorus chords “And the particular thing is this . . .”

Lyrics:

This is the greatest and best song in the world; Tribute

A long time ago me and my brother Kyle here
We was hitchhiking down a long and lonesome road
All of a sudden there shined a shinny demon in the middle of the road
And he said, “Play the best song in the world or I’ll eat your souls.”
Well me and Kyle, we looked at each other and we each said, “Okay!”

And we played the first thing that came to our heads 
Just so happened to be the best song in the world
It was the best song in the world

Look into my eyes and it’s easy to see
One and one make two, two and one make three; 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

Needless to say the beast was stunned
‘A Whip, crack!’ whipped his whipped tail and the beast was done
He asked us “(snort) Be you angels?”
And we said, “Nay, we are but men, ROCK ON!”

Oh, woah
This is not the greatest song in the world; no, this is just a tribute
Couldn’t remember the greatest song in the world, no
This is a tribute to the greatest song in the world, alright
Cause the greatest song in the world, alright, this is the best song
The greatest song in the world

Hon gee, swee gee goo geep, dooga fleegu gegu la flee gugeguk badei
He gaguk dee huga boga goga gee fleegu geguk fleega deguk alaee sefea

And the peculiear thing is this my friends, the song we sang on that fateful night 
It didn’t actually song like this song! This is just a tribute

You gotta believe me, and I wish you there, just a matter of opinion
Ahh, Good God! God lovin’ ya! You’re so surprised to find ya can’t stop him ahh!
Up far, ahhh give up ah yeah!

Alright!
Alright!
