hmmm... jeez., this was tough.. I will give you the basics for Dan's initial verse and filler... but it's up to you to get the tabs for the covered tunes.... sorry I can't help much more than this.. Also,... this is the wrong version of lyrics..only one I could find... there are about 3 other verses.
Hint: the Kurt Cobain chords are just E and C
the Imagine cover is just C and G..
Look up the neil young.. I couldn't find it..
And I had trouble with the elvis costello part..
Good Luck

In 1982,
C
John took a leave of absence from the Beatles
D G
and Elvis Costello joined the band
he wrote a song with Yoko and George
that went:
Aaaaaalison�.cut her hair while my guitar gently weeps
Creeps through a little room of electrified plastic
Mmmmmmm
A few years after that
John was back, and Ringo took a break
The brought in Dave Grohl
And he brought along his buddy, Kurt Cobain
Who started writing with Paul
Kurt and Paul's best song went something like:
E...................C...............E........................C
I am bleeding inside I am bleeding I am bleeding inside
..................D...............................C............
And what's wrong with that, I'd like to know
...........D....................
So let's bleed inside again
Dylan was a Beatle for a while
But his songs with Yoko
Were even too weird for John
When George took a break
Jimi Hendrix came in
And when George returned
Jimi stayed on
They tour a little bit every year
Ther rest of the time they can be seen
Six nights a week in Vegas
At the fabulous Yellow Submarine
Hotel and Casino
Loosest slots in Nevada
Tonight ladies and gentleman
We present to you the Beatles
John, Paul and Yoko
George and Ringo
Elvis Costello
Sinead O'Conner
Dave Grohl
Kurt Cobain
Jimi Hendrix
Wil Masisak
Her and me
