Saturday Night Live Chords & Tabs
Intro Song from Saturday Night Live appearance.
Jack Black (with help later from the other guy on flutes) plays this too
start off the show acoustically. I got the video off Kazaa
(Tenacious_D_on_SNL_01192002_vcd.mpg)
The intro riff is played throughout the song
(often in the background when he's not even playing guitar).

Like a cross between a lightning bolt and James Dean.
I only wish that I was you looking at me
