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 (x02220@1) C#m (x13321@4)  D (xx0232@1)    E (022100@1)    A (x02220@1)  F#m (244222@1)  E (022100@1)VERSE 1
                AI (x02220@1)thought I was smart
                 C#mI (x13321@4)thought I was right
             D (xx0232@1)           E (022100@1)        
I thought it better not to fight
                      A (x02220@1)       F#m (244222@1)        EI (022100@1)thought there was a virtue in always being cool
           A (x02220@1)          C#m (x13321@4) 
So when it came time to fight
            D (xx0232@1)         EI (022100@1)thought I'd just step aside
         A (x02220@1)                  F#m (244222@1)     E (022100@1)              AAnd (x02220@1)that time would prove you wrong and you would be the fool
                                                    (I don't know)

CHORUS
             C#m (x13321@4)             D (xx0232@1)          EWhere (022100@1)the sun beams  and the star lights begin
           A (x02220@1)   F#m (244222@1)  E (022100@1)
It's all a mystery

VERSE 2
A (x02220@1)                 C#mOh (x13321@4)to fight is to defend 
             DAnd (xx0232@1)if it's not
              E (022100@1)               A (x02220@1)                  F#m (244222@1)            EThen (022100@1)tell me when would be the time that you would stand up and be a man
         A (x02220@1)          C#m (x13321@4)          DFor (xx0232@1)to lose I could accept but to surrender
         E (022100@1)                     A (x02220@1)          
I just wept and regretted this moment 
F#m (244222@1)   EOh (022100@1)that I 
           AI (x02220@1)was the fool
(I don't know)

CHORUS
           C#m (x13321@4)                D (xx0232@1)          EWhere (022100@1)the sun beams and the star lights begin
             A (x02220@1)   F#m (244222@1)  E (022100@1)
It's all a mystery
              A (x02220@1)      C#m (x13321@4)                D (xx0232@1)               EAnd (022100@1)I don't know how a man decides what's right for his own life
                A (x02220@1)   F#m (244222@1)  E (022100@1)
It's all a mystery.

                 D (xx0232@1)             EBut (022100@1)you're with him I'll do no good 
                  AI (x02220@1)should have fought him,
        F#m (244222@1)         EBut (022100@1)instead I let him
