**from the album "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots"

Intro - A   C#m   Bm   E   A   F#m   E

                A                       C#m
I thought I was smart - I thought I was right
             Bm            E
I thought it better not to fight - I thought there was a
A         F#m          E                 A            C#m
Virtue in always being cool - so when it came time to fight
          Bm              E                 A                   
I thought I'll just step aside and that the time would
          F#m            E
Prove you wrong and that you would be the fool -

        A              C#m                   Bm
I don't know where the sun beams end and the star
        E               A      F#m   E
Light begins it's all a mystery

      A             C#m
Oh to fight is to defend if it's not
Bm               E                 A                   F#m
Now than tell me when would be the time that you would stand up
         E            A              C#m            Bm
And be a man - for to lose I could accept but to surrender
       E                       A     F#m        E
I just wept and regretted this moment - oh that I - I

Was the fool

        A              C#m                   Bm
I don't know where the sun beams end and the star
        E               A      F#m   E
Light begins it's all a mystery
            A          C#m              Bm
And I don't know how a man decides what right for his
    E                 A      F#m   E
Own life - it's all a mystery

            A         C#m               Bm
Cause I'm a man not a boy and there are things
           E                A                     F#m
You can't avoid you have to face them when you're not prepared
   E
To face them -
     A       C#m                   Bm                 E
If I could I would but you're with him now it'd do no good
              A                F#m            E
I should have fought him but instead I let him - I let

Him take it -

        A              C#m                   Bm
I don't know where the sun beams end and the star
        E               A      F#m   E
Light begins it's all a mystery
            A          C#m              Bm
And I don't know how a man decides what right for his
    E                 A      F#m   E
Own life - it's all a mystery

        E               A      F#m   E
Light begins it's all a mystery
