G    D     Em     Am              Em
A long, long time ago In a galaxy far away
C            D                 G         D      Em               
Naboo was under an attack. And I thought me and Qui-Gon Jinn
        Am         Em            C              Em            D
Could talk the federation in to maybe cutting them a little slack
Em                       Am            Em                          Am 
But their response, it didn't thrill us They locked the doors and tried to

kill us
G      D             Em           C                D
We escaped from that gas Then met Jar Jar and Boss Nass
   G       D      Em                    Am               Em
We took a bongo from the scene  And we went to Theed to see the Queen
   G         D      Em                        D          G     C     G
We all wound up on Tatooine. That's where we found this boy

     G   C              G    D          G             C
Ohhh My my this here Anakin guy maybe Vader someday later
          G            D
Now he's just a small fry           /____  chorus
     G       C                    G \     D    
He left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
         Em                 A        Em                 D
Sayin'"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi", "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

G        D           Em              Am             Em
Did you know this junkyard slave Isn't even old enough to shave
C                   Am          D           G        D         Em
But he can use the Force, they say Ahh, do you see him hitting on the queen
        Am                 Em            C                           Am
Though he's just nine and she's fourteen Yeah, he's probably gonna marry her 
    D
Someday
          Em            Am             Em                Am
Well, I know he built C-3PO and I've heard how fast his pod can go
    G         D          Em         C               D
And we were broke, it's true so we made a wager or two
          G      D      Em                 Am                  Em  
He was a prepubescent flyin' ace And the minute Jabba started off that race 
   G     D   Em             
I knew who would win first place
            D       G      C      G  
Oh yes, it was our boy
                         chorus

       G        D          Em         Am              Em          
Now we finally got to Coruscant the Jedi Council we knew would want
    C        Am               D          G         D           Em           
To see how good the boy could be. so we took him there and we told the tale
       Am                  Em     
How his midiclorians were off the scale
      C            Am             D              Em             Am           
And he might just fulfill that prophecy oh the Council was impressed of 

course
      Em                Am
Could he bring balance to the Force?
G         D           Em       C              D    
They interviewed the kid Oh, training they forbid
         G      D       Em               Am             Em 
Because Yoda sensed in him much fear and Qui-Gon said "Now listen here"
         G       D        Em                     D          G    C    G
"Just stick it in your pointy ear,I still will teach this boy"
                       
                   chorus

   G        D         Em              Am             Em 
We caught a ride back to Naboo 'cause Queen Amidala wanted to
     C        Am             D    G          D          Em  
I frankly would've liked to stay. we all fought in that epic war
     Am                Em              C                  Am            
And it wasn't long at all before little hotshot flew his plane and saved the 
D 
day
 Em                Am                Em                    Am 
In the end some Gungans died Some ships blew up and some pilots fried
G          D          Em         C                   D 
A lot of folks were croakin'The battle droids were broken
G            D    Em            Am                      Em 
And the Jedi I admire most met up with Darth Maul and now he's toast
       G         D        Em              C           D        G     C    G
Well, I'm still here and he's a ghost I guess I'll train this boy
