CHRONOLOGY:
INTRO: (CHORUS)
VERSE I:
I thought I was [Aadd9]smart I thought I was [C#m]right
I thought it [D]better not to [E]fight
I thought there was a [A]virtue in [F#m]always being [E]cool
so when it [A]came time to [C#m]fight I thought [D]I'll just step a[E]side
A F#m E (FILL I&II)
and that time would prove you wrong and you would be the fool
CHORUS:
I don't [A]know where the [C#m]sun beams end and the [D]star lights b[E]egin
It's all a [A]myster[F#m]y[E]
VERSE II:
Oh to [Aadd9]fight is to [C#m]defend if it's not
[D]Now than tell me [E]when would be the
[A]time that you would [F#m]stand up and be a[E] man
for to [A]lose I could [C#m]accept but to surr[D]ender I just [E]wet and regretted
A F#m E (FILL I&II)
This moment, oh that I, I was a fool
CHORUS:
VERSE III:
Cause I?m a [Aadd9]man, not a [C#m]boy
and there are [D]things you can?t [E]avoid
you have to [A]face them when you are [F#m]not prepared to fa[E]ce them
Oh I [A]would if I [C#m]could, but your with [D]him now it?d do no [E]good
A F#m E (FILL I&II)
I should have fought him but instead I let him...take me
CHORUS:
BRIDGE: D E D E (FILL I&II)
CHORUS:
END: Aadd9
