"The Legend of Zelda"

ttto: The Legend of Zelda theme by Koji Kondo

	/ G5 F5 / Eb5 D5 /

	Long ago and far away...
	In a land of yesterday...

	(It's dangerous to go alone! Take this.)

/ G D / /

Go, son!  There's a darkness on the land!
Fight well, for my sword is in your hand!

/ G D / C G / F Em / F# BD /

Night falls, and it's time you understand
That you are the one, the child of destiny.
You have answered the call, you must fight for us all,
Or else Hyrule shall fall to the enemy...

	/ G D / C B7 / / / F Em / F# BD /

	Triforce, the power of the gods,
	Was into three parts divided:
	One part for wisdom,
	And one for power,
	And one for courage,
	Now you must go out and find them!

Ganon, the evil king of thieves,
Has hidden them deep in perilous catacombs,
Down far underground, where monsters abound,
And mazes confound young adventurers...

	Go son, the Triforce you must seek,
	And rescue the princess Zelda!
	Who was taken captive
	By Ganon's minions;
	She's in his dungeon,
	And no one but you can help her!

Hyrule, once beautiful and fair,
Now crawling with swarms of Leevers and Octoroks.
With sword and with shield, over forest and field,
You must fight and not yield, until victory!

		/ G D / / G. /

		Now, put away your sword!
		Zelda is safe, Triforce is restored!
That's the end.
