Chorus 1: (with Riffs)

(n.C)          Am*              G
 'Cos it's the Pick Of Destiny, child,
    Fmaj7                             G
You know it will be rocking 'cos it's fuckin' insane.
              Am*             G
'Cos it's the Pick Of Destiny,
     Fmaj7                        G
More precious than a diamond on a platinum chain.

Verse 1:

Am*                                         G
 In Venice Beach there was a man named Kage,
F                           G
 When he was busking he was all of the rage.
Am*                                   G
 He met Jables and he taught him well;
F                                G
 All the techniques that were de-veloped in Hell.

Am*                                G
 Cock push-ups and the power slide,
F                           G
 Gig simulation now there's nowhere to hide.
Am*                                        G
 They formed a band they named Tenacious D,
F                              G
 And then they got the Pick Of Destiny.

Chorus 2: (with Riffs)

              Am*              G
'Cos it's the Pick Of Destiny, child,
    Fmaj7                             G
You know it will be rocking 'cos it's fuckin' insane.
              Am*              G
'Cos it's the Pick Of Destiny, child,
    Fmaj7                         G
Our tasty moves are better than a chicken Chow Mien.

Bridge 1:

     Fmaj7                G
'Cos he who is sleazy, is easy to please-y,
    Fmaj7                  G
And she who is juicy, must be Loose-y Goose-y
    Fmaj7                  G                          Am  G  F  Am, E7
And he who is groovy, will be in my movie, so come on.

Break:

    Dm
The wizard and the demon had a Battle Royale,
    Am
The demon almost killed him with an evil ka-pow.
    C                                    G               (n.C)
But then he broke his tooth and thus the Demon said 'ow'!

Chorus 3:

              Am*              G
'Cos it's the Pick Of Destiny, child,
    Fmaj7                             G
You know it will be rocking 'cos it's fuckin' insane.
              Am*              G
'Cos it's the Pick Of Destiny, child,
    Fmaj7                           G
You know our Boogie's better than-a Citizen Kane.

Bridge 2:

     Fmaj7                   G
'Cos he who's a geezer, must live in my freezer,
    Fmaj7                 G
And she who is Snarky, is full of malarkey.
    Fmaj7                  G
And he who is groovy, will be in my movie, so come on.

'Cos if you're a diva, then go to Geneva,
    Fmaj7                   G
And if you're a crony, then suck on my boney.
    Fmaj7                   G
And if you are groovy, then get in my movie, it's called...
