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.

----------------------------..............
*from 'Spinal Tap: The Original Soundtrack' (1984)*
Intro:
Em A#5, G5 A#5 (x3)
Verse 1:
Em A#5 G5 A#5
When there was darkness, and the void was king and ruled the elements.
Em A#5 G5 A5
When there was silence, and the hush was almost deafening.
Bridge 1:
B5 C#5 D5 G5 F#5 E
Out of the emptiness, (sal-va -tion),
B5 C#5 D5 G5 F#5
Rhythm and light and sound.
Chorus 1:
E5 A5 D5 G5
'Twas the Rock and Roll Cre-a -tion,
E5 A5 D5 G5
'Twas a terrible Big bang.
E5 A5 D5 G5
'Twas the ultimate mu-ta-tion,
E5 A5 D5
Ying was searching for, his Yang.
F5 (Em)
And he looked and he saw that it was good.
Interlude:
Em A#5, G5, A5
Break:
A G D A
I look to the stars and the answer is clear.
A G D A
I look in the mirror and see what I fear.
Interlude:
A G, D A, C D, Em
Chorus 2:
E5 A5 D5 G5
'Tis the the Rock and Roll Cre-a -tion,
E5 A5 D5 G5
'Tis the accident, re-versed.
E5 A5 D5 G5
'Tis the rolling of, the o -ce-an,
E5 A5 D5
And the rocking of, the earth.
F5 (Em)
And I looked, and I saw that it was good.
Outro:
Em A#5, G5 A#5 (x2), Em
