Pick Of Destiny Chords & Tabs
Pick Of Destiny-Tenacious D
Ok First of all I wana thank cLuMsY for tabbing this first and
giving me a general idea of how to tab this, but i noticed that it was
just chords so I thought I'd put out a more official version. The
only source I have for this song at the moment is the music video, so the
actual song might be different. If it is, when I get the real version
I'll fix it up. Anyway, most of you really don't care about what I'm saying,
so without further a-doo...
LONG LIVE THE D!
