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
