listen to this song
/ D /: G -(D) G AD / G D G - :/
Oh, say you can't see, by the planet's pale gleam,
What so grimly we feared at the base's last orbit!
Whose great weapon array fires so mighty a beam,
That the strongest deflectors could never absorb it!
/ G - D7 - / G D7 G AD / G C Am GD / G (C)G - DG /
But the fighters' swift zoom, and the Death Star's big boom,
Gave proof through the night, we'd been saved from our doom!
Oh, say can one small X-Wing fighter fly rings,
Around any other ship, with any number of wings?
