A long long time ago
Am Cin a galaxy far away
Em DNaboo was under an attack
And I thought me and Qui-Gon Jinn
Am CCould talk the Federation in
Em C D7To maybe cutting them a little slack
But their response, it didn't thrill us
Em AmThey locked the doors and tried to kill us
C G AmWe escaped from that gas
Then killed Jar Jar and Boss Nass
G D EmWe took a bongo from the scene
Am7 DAnd we went to Theed to see the queen
We all wound up on Tatooine
C D7 G C GThat's where we found this boy...
G C G DOh my my, this here Anakin guy
May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
G C G DAnd he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
Em A7Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
G AmDid you know this junkyard slave
C AmIsn't even old enough to shave
But he can use the Force they say
G D EmAhh, do you see him hitting on the queen
Am CThough he's just nine and she's fourteen
Yeah, he's probably gonna marry her someday
Em AmWell, I know he built C-3PO
Em AmAnd I've heard how fast his pod can go
And we were broke, it's true
C D7So we made a wager or two...oooh!
G D EmHe was a prepubescent flyin' ace
And the minute Jabba started off that race
G D EmWell, I knew who'd would win first place
C D7 G C G D7Oh yes, it was our boy...We started singing
my my, this here Anakin guy
G C G DMay be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
G C G DAnd he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
Em D7"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
G AmNow we finally got to Coruscant
The Jedi Council, we knew would want
Em DTo see how good the boy could be
G D EmSo we took him there and we told the tale
How his midi-chlorians were off the scale
Em A7 D7And he might fulfill that prophecy
Em AmOh, the Council was impressed, of course
Could he bring balance to the Force?
C G A7They interviewed the kid
C D7Oh, training they forbid....oh?
Because Yoda sensed in him much fear
Am CAnd Qui-Gon said, "Now listen here
G D EmJust stick it in your pointy ear
I still will teach this boy"..He was singin'
G C G Dmy my, this here Anakin guy
G C G DMay be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
Em A7Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
Em D7"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
G D Em
We caught a ride back to Naboo
'Cause Queen Amidala wanted to
Em DI frankly would've liked to stay
G D EmWe all fought in that epic war
And it wasn't long at all before
Em C D7Little Hotshot flew his plane and saved the day
Em AmAnd in the end some Gungans died
Some ships blew up and some pilots fried
C G Am7A lot of folks were croakin'
C DThe battle droids were broken
And the Jedi I admire most
Am Am7 DMet up with Darth Maul and now he's toast
G D EmWell, I'm still here and he's a ghost
. C D7 G C G (slow) D7
I guess I'll train this boy.....And I was singin'...
G C G DMy my, this here Anakin guy
G C G DMay be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
Em A7Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
Em D7"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
G D7 (all)
We were singin...
G C G Dmy my, this here Anakin guy
G C G DMay be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
C D7 G C GSayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
