Biography:
Spin¨al Tap is the name of a fictional English hard rock / 80s heavy metal band, created for the 1984 rockumentary film This Is Spin¨al Tap. However, due to the success of the film, the band went on to record and release three albums.
The band is a strong satire of the 70s and 80s heavy metal genre and scene, and their music reflects that, with blaring guitars, high vocals, and ridiculous lyrical themes, all of which take the stereotypes of the genre and exaggerate them to comedic extremes.

[Intro]
E
We came like babies
E A
From our home across the sea to see America
D A
And the people opened up their arms
E
To welcome us... to America
E
We came like children
E A
From a far and distant land to see America
D A
And the golden sun of freedom
E
Filtered down to us, in America
D A
And the people stood and stared
D E
Loved us more than we had dared to, in America
[Chorus]
