Verse 1
G D Em Am C Em D G
A long, long time ago, in a galaxy far away, Naboo was under an attack. And I thought

me and Qui Gon Gin, could talk the Federation into maybe cutting them a little slack. But
Am Em Am C G
There response it didn’t thrill us, they looked the doors and tried to kill us. We escaped

to Fee to see the Queen, we all wound up on Tatooine, that’s where, we found.. This

G Am C Am Em
Did you know this Junkyard slave isn’t even old enough too shave, but he can use the
D G D Em Am7 C
force they say… ahh do you see him hitting on the queen though he’s just nine and she’s
Em A7 D Em D
fourteen, yeah he’s probably gonna marry her someday. Well I know he built C-3PO and
Em D C G A7 C
I’ve heard how fast his Pod can go, and we were broke it’s true, so we made a wager or
D7 G D Em Am C
two Ooo he was a prepubescent flying ace and the minute Jabba started off that race I

G Am C Am Em
Now we finally got to Corasaunt the Jedi Council we knew would want too see how good
D G D Em Am7 C
the boy could be, so we took him there and we told a tale how his many corians were off
Em A7 D Em D
the scale and he might for fill that Prophesy, well the council was impressed of course,
Em D C G A7 C D7
could he bring balance too the force, they interviewed the kid, oh training they forbid,

because Yoda sensed in him much fear, and Qui Gon said now listen here, just stick it in
Em C D7 G C G
your pointy ear, I still will teach, this boy.
(Chorus)

We caught a ride back too Naboo, cause Queen Amedala wanted to, I frankly would have

liked to stay, we all fought in that epic war, and it wasn’t long at all before little hot shot
C D Em Am Em
flew his plane and saved the day, and in the end some Gun Gens died, some ships blew
Am C G Am C D
up and some pilots fried, a lot of folks were croakin, the battle droids were broken, and
G D Em C D7 G D
the Jedi I admire most, met up with Darth Maul and now he’s toast, well I’m still here
