Saturday Night Live Intro Song tab by Tenacious D

Tenacious D - Intro Song from Saturday Night Live appearance.
This tab is all my own work.


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).
