intro: A C#m D E2 A F#m E
verse:
A C#m
I thought I was smart - I thought I was right
D E2
I thought it better not to fight
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/f/flaming_lips/fight_test_crd.html ]
A F#m E
I thought there was a virtue in always being cool
A C#m D E2
so when it came time to fight - I thought I'll just step aside
A F#m E A...
and that time would prove you wrong and you would be the fool...
chorus:
...A C#m D E2
...I don't know where the sun beams end and the star lights begin
A F#m E
It's all a mystery
verse: as before
Oh to fight is to defend if it's not
Now than tell me when would be the time that you would stand up
And be a man - for to lose I could accept but to surrender
I just wet and regretted this moment - oh that I - I
Was the fool
chorus: as before
I don't know where the sun beams end and the star
Light begins it's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides what right for his
Own life - it's all a mystery
bridge: D E
chorus: as before
I don't know where the sun beams end and the star
Light begins it's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides what right for his
Own life - it's all a mystery
end on an A, plus Aadd9
