[Verse 1]
         Em 
When The Pick of Destiny was released it was a bomb
And all the critics said that the D was done
The sun had set and the chapter had closed
But one thing no one thought about was the D would rise again
              A
Just like the phoenix
              Bb   Em 
We'll fuckin' rise again
                  A
That's right, the phoenix
        Bb  Em
We'll rise again.

[Verse 2] 
(like first Verse)
'Cause the fiery heart of a champion cannot be quelched
By a failure or an embarrassment, no way, no
And the critics all agreed it was a stinky pile of chee
But that does not mean that our hearts are not strong
Just like the phoenix
We'll fuckin' rise again, y'all
That's right, the phoenix
We'll rise again

But what if it's true?
     G                                A
If Tenacious D has died, what will we do?
And what will we do
About all the fans who have the D tattoo?
They'll have them removed
They'll have to laser off the D tattoos
Tattoos
They'll have to laser off the D tattoo

A5
Wait a minute Cage
G5                               
What's that you say?           
D/F#
You know it's not too late
A
Yes it is too late
We only need one hit
Just imagine it
We could be the shit
Too legit to quit
    A   
One hit
    G
One hit
    D/F#
One hit
           A
Yeah we're hoping this is it
One hit
Top 10 hit
Top 40 hit
Top 1000 hit
Aw, we don't care, as long as we get there
We'll start anew
And you can get a new Tenacious D tattoo
                                 F G A
You can get a new Tenacious D tattoo
