CHRONOLOGY:

INTRO: (CHORUS)

VERSE I:

Aadd9 C#m

I thought I was smart 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 D E

so when it came time to fight I thought I'll just step aside

A F#m E (FILL I&II)

and that time would prove you wrong and you would be the fool

CHORUS:

A C#m D E

I don't know where the sun beams end and the star lights begin

A F#m E

It's all a mystery

VERSE II:

Aadd9 C#m

Oh to fight is to defend if it's not

D E

Now than tell me when would be the

A F#m E

time that you would stand up and be a man

A C#m D E

for to lose I could accept but to surrender I just wet and regretted

A F#m E (FILL I&II)

This moment, oh that I, I was a fool

CHORUS:

VERSE III:

Aadd9 C#m

Cause I’m a man, not a boy

D E

and there are things you can’t avoid

A F#m E

you have to face them when you are not prepared to face them

A C#m D E

Oh I would if I could, but your with him now it’d do no 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
