We were hitchhiking down a long and lonesome road.

All of a sudden, there shined a shiny demon...
G|-----------------0h2---------------------------------|
D|-------------0h2-------------------------------------|
A|----0-0-0-0------------------------------------------|

In the middle of the road.

And he said:
“Play the best song in the world, or I'll eat your souls."
G|------------------------------------------------------|
