Sunter had the right chords but didn't have all the verses, so here's a version with all of the words. This song sounds better with two singers, so I've put the second singer's lyrics in parentheses. INTRO A C#m D E A F#m E VERSE 1 A I thought I was smart C#m I thought I was right D E I thought it better not to fight A F#m E I thought there was a virtue in always being cool A C#m So when it came time to fight D E I thought I'd just step aside A F#m E A And that time would prove you wrong and you would be the fool (I don't know) CHORUS C#m D E Where the sun beams and the star lights begin A F#m E It's all a mystery VERSE 2 A C#m Oh to fight is to defend D And if it's not E A F#m E Then tell me when would be the time that you would stand up and be a man A C#m D For to lose I could accept but to surrender E A I just wept and regretted this moment F#m E Oh that I A I was the fool (I don't know) [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/f/flaming-lips/320837.html ] CHORUS C#m D E Where the sun beams and the star lights begin A F#m E It's all a mystery A C#m D E And I don't know how a man decides what's right for his own life A F#m E It's all a mystery. VERSE 3 A C#m 'Cause I'm a man- not a boy D E And there are things you can't afford A You have to face them F#m E When you're not prepared to face them A C#m And if I could I would D E But you're with him I'll do no good A I should have fought him, F#m E But instead I let him A Let him take you (I don't know) CHORUS C#m D E Where the sun beams and the star lights begin A F#m E It's all a mystery A C#m D E And I don't know how a man decides what's right for his own life A F#m E It's all a mystery. A C#m D E A F#m E CHORUS A C#m D E I don't know where the sun beams and the star lights begin A It's all a mystery F#m E (That you'd stand up and be a man) A C#m D E And I don't know how a man decides what's right for his own life A It's all a mystery. F#m E (When you're not prepared to face them) A C#m D E I don't know where the sun beams and the star lights begin A It's all a mystery F#m E (But instead I let them take you) A F#m E Mystery |
