"The Ballad of Brinstar" lyrics by Benjamin Newman ttto: the Brinstar theme from "Metroid" by Hirokazu Tanaka / DF BbC / D - / I was here before... / D C4 / / / D D4D / Once, you, Knowing what you knew, flew; Should have seen it through -- do! Take another shot! / G F / / / G - / Now, you are alone, Running through a land carved out of stone; Open up your hand, make it your own, Show it what you've got, girl! / C F / / D5 D4D / G F / A - / You know, you are amazing! Look at you go, weapons a-blazing, Taking control, standing tall, Ready to roll, and having a ball! Down here, Everything is clear. Sheer! Never knowing fear! Steer Any way you will. Deep into the cave, Dodging things that zoom, catching a wave Ripping through the room -- you've got to be brave -- It's nothing you can't kill, girl. Fast as you can manage, Having a blast, doing some damage, Fighting the fight -- Lock and load! You're so excited, you could explode! Now, go. Everywhere you turn, foe. But with all you've learned, you know What you have to do. Charge into the fray! Doesn't matter what gets in your way! You are on the hunt, they are the prey -- You can never lose, girl! Zebes' prodigal daughter, Building a bridge over the water Making your way to the heart; See that this place gets taken apart... It's a start!
