Tuning:
This is a modified version of DeX3's chord write up. 95% of
the work is his, I just tweaked a couple of chords and added
a walkdown which sounds closer to the real thing to my ear.

INTRO:
2x: Em C D/F#
EmThis is the ballad of CHollywood Jack and the D/F#Rage Cage
EmNothing could Cstop them when Jables and Rage hit the D/F#stage
EmAnd Hollywood Jack hit the Cbig time and when to make D/F#movies
EmRage Kage was left far beChind in the dust of his D/F#dreams
And he Emgrumbled and D/F#growled and watched GHollywood C*Jack on Jay B7*Leno
He Embellowed and D/F#said he'd be Gnothing withC*out help from B7*Kage
He Emburned up the D/F#photos of GJables and C*Kage doing B7*mushrooms
Em"Fuck him, I D/F#don't need no GHollywood C*Jack anyB7*way"
EmSo Hollywood Jack lived up Chigh on a hill in a D/F#bubble
EmAnd Rage Kage lived deep in the Cbroiling valley beD/F#low
Yes, the EmRage Kage Cbubbled with rage
He D/F#looked at the ground
And he B7looked on the stage
The Emlava was flowing
And Cboiling inside the old D/F#Kage B7
EmAs Hollywood D/F#Jack climbed the Gladder of C*stardom beB7*fore him
EmHe watched as his D/F#indie creGdentials flew C*right out the B7*door
EmHe'd make millions and D/F#then he'd go Gout and he'd C*make even B7*more millions
EmHe'd screen KG's D/F#calls and snort Gcoke of the C*ass of a B7*whore
EmNo one respected him
CThey just rejected him
GNo one would represent D/F#Kage
EmLeft on the streets of his Cdreams
he would cry, and he'd Grage for the B7stage
Ahahaaa
FLUTE SOLO:
4x: Em C D/F# (add B7 to end solo)
Then EmHollywood Jack got a Cmessage that Kage was in D/F#trouble
They Emsent Kage away cause he Chad gone completely inD/F#sane
So EmHollywood Jack jumped uCpon a jetplane and D/F#flew all that night through the rain
To Embe with his friend to Csee what remained of his D/F#brain
Then EmHollywood D/F#Jack told the Gdoctors: "You C*got to reB7*trieve him!"
You've Emgot the techD/F#nology, Guse the techC*niques of your B7*trade
He Emgrabbed their laD/F#pels and he Gscreamed "BY C*GOD YOU MUST B7*SAVE HIM!"
Because EmRage Kage and D/F#I; can't you Gsee that were C*one and the B7*same!
Aaaah!
EmRAGE KAGE!
COH RAGE KAGE!
There'd be Gmagic inside that old D/F#name
And you Emknow,
yes you Cknow
When you're Ggoing completely inB7sane
Oh the EmRage Kage!
Oh the CRage Kage!
Oh the Glion will roar once aD/F#gain
And you Emknow
Yes you Cknow
When you're Ggoing completely inB7sane
EmNothing and D/F#no one could Gharm the old C*Rage Kage aB7*gain,
EmNothing and D/F#no one could Gharm the old C*Rage Kage aB7*gain,
EmNothing and D/F#no one could Gharm the old C*Rage Kage aB7*gain,
EmNothing and D/F#no one could Gharm the old C*Rage Kage aB7*gain,
EmNothing and D/F#no one could Gharm the old C*Rage Kage aB7*gain,
EmHollywood JaD/F#ck and the GRage Kage were C*out once agB7*ain...
