Weird Al Yankovic - The Saga Begins


  G     D    Em
A long, long time ago
Am          C           Em            D  
In a galaxy far away, Naboo was under an Attack
    G D              Em      G
And I thought me and Qui-Gon Jinn
      Am           C
Could talk the federation in
   Em            C             D
to maybe cutting them a little slack
Em                       Am
  But their response, it didn't thrill us
Em                          Am
  They locked the doors and tried to kill us
C    G          Am  
We escaped from that gas
     C               D
Then met Jar Jar and Boss Nass
   G      D     Em
We took a Bongo from the scene 
      C                 D
And we went to theed to see the queen
   G         D     Em
We all wound up on Tatooine
      C        D          G
Thats where we found this boy
   

CHORUS:
    G  C             G      D
So, my my, this here Anakin Guy
       G              C              G            D
may be Vader some day later now he's just a small fry
   G        C                   G        D
he left his home and kissed his mommy goobye
         Em                     A
Singin': Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi
Em                     D 
Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi


G                  Am
 Did you know this junk yard slave
      C         Am
isn't even old enough to shave
Em                   D
  But he can use the force they say
        G       D           Em 
Ahh, do you see him hitting on the queen
         Am             C
although he's just 9 and she's 14
    Em               Am           D
Yeh he's, probly gonna marry her, some day
        Em              D
Well, I know he built C-3PO
       Em                   D
And I've heard how fast his pod can go
    C       G         Am
And we were broke its true
      C               D 
so we made a wager or two
         G    D       Em
He was a prepubescent flyin' ace
        Am                  C
and the minute Jaba started off that race
    G      D         Em 
But I knew who would win first place 
   C       D       G 
oh yes, it was our boy


CHORUS:
                    G  C             G      D
And we were singin, my my, this here Anakin Guy
       G              C              G            D
may be Vader some day later now he's just a small fry
   G        C                   G        D
he left his home and kissed his mommy goobye
         Em                     A
Singin': Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi
Em                     D 
Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi


       G              Am
Now we finally got to Coruscant
     C           Am
The Jedi Council we knew would want
  Em                D    
To see how good the boy could be
      G        D            Em
So we took him there and we told the tale
        Am             D
How his midi-chlorians were off the scale
       Em       Am        D     
And he might fulfill that prophecy
       Em             D
Oh, the Council was impressed, of course
      Em              D
Could he bring balance to the Force?
     C    G          Am
They interviewed the kid
    C                D
Oh, training they forbid
        G    D         Em
Because Yoda sensed in him much fear
    Am            C
And Qui-Gon said, "Now listen here
     G        D      Em
Just stick it in your pointy ear
  C          D          G
I still will teach this boy"



CHORUS:
                   G  C             G      D
And he was singin, my my, this here Anakin Guy
       G              C              G            D
may be Vader some day later now he's just a small fry
   G        C                   G        D
he left his home and kissed his mommy goobye
         Em                     A
Singin': Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi
Em                     D 
Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi


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


CHORUS:
                    G  C             G      D
And we were singin, my my, this here Anakin Guy
       G              C              G            D
may be Vader some day later now he's just a small fry
   G        C                   G        D
he left his home and kissed his mommy goobye
         Em                     A
Singin': Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi
Em                     D 
Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi
