"Crouching Tiger, Jedi Master"
lyrics and music by Benjamin Newman

/ Em - CD Em / - C D - / C D Em C / - D Em - /

Child from the desert, with you the Force is strong,
And I would teach you everything I know:
How to wield the sword with honor, how to know the right from wrong,
But I fear the dark side will not let you go.

Princess from far province, lost amid the shifting sand,
Here you'll find the one whose love for you is true.
But when you hold the ancient weapon in your trembling hand,
There is no limit to what you can do.

	/ Em - C D / / C D - Em / C - D Em /

	Crouching tiger, Jedi master,
	Don't forget for what you fight!
	Young apprentice, hidden dragon,
	Choose the darkness or the light!

In the capital city, behind a mask of courtly calm,
Beware the enemy within your walls!
And listen, young apprentice, don't let anger drive you on,
Or listen to the dark side when it calls!

For the warrior's way will lead you to the edge of all you knew,
On the outskirts you will face your final test,
Dark master, dark apprentice, there can be only two,
But who can say which one was laid to rest?

	Crouching tiger, Jedi master,
	Do not waste your final breath!
	Young apprentice, hidden dragon,
	Walk the path of life and death!

	Crouching tiger, Jedi master,
	Heed the words that you lived by!
	Young apprentice, hidden dragon,
	Do or don't, there is no try!
