A Puzzlement Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[E]Whe[G]n I[E] wa[G]s a[E] bo[A]y,
the world was better spot.
What was so, was so.
What was not, was not.
[C]Now I am a man,
world have changed a lot,
some things [G]nearly [C]so,
[E]others nea[G]rly not[E].
[G]There [C]are [D]tim[G]es [C]I almost think
I am not sure
of what I absolutely [G]know.
Very of[C]ten find confusion
in conclusion I concluded long [G]ago.
In my head are many facts
that as a student
[C]I have studied to proc[F]ure.[Fm]
In my [C]head are [G]many facts
of which I wish I was more certain.
[Dm]I wa[G]s sure. is[C][G][D][G]
[C]a p[G]uzz[C]lement.[G]
[E]Shall I [A]join [Am]with other na
[G]tions in al[D]liance?
[F]If allies are wea[Am]k,
am [C]I not best a[F#]lone?
If [Bm]allies are strong with [A]power
to protect [E]me,[G]
might they [D]not protect me [Bdim]out of all I own[E]?
Is a [Dm]danger to be trusting one another?
One will sel[Db]dom [Dm]want to
do what other [C]wishes
But unless someday
[G]somebody trusts s[C]omebody
There'll be noth[Ab]ing left on [G]earth
excepting [C]fishes[G]
[C]There are times I almost
think nobody's sure
of what he absolutely [G]needs
Everybody [C]find confusion in conclusion
he concluded long [G]ago
Can it puzzle me to learn
that though a [C]man may be in doubt
of what he [F]knows[Cm][Fm]
Very [G]quickly will [C]he fight,
[Em]he'll figh[Am]t to prove[C] that what he does[G] not know is so[D][A][D]
[A]Oh, sometimes I think that
people going mad
Oh, sometimes I think that
people not so [B]bad
But no [E]matter [Em]what I think,
I must go on [F#m]living life
[A]As [F#m]leader[A] of my [F#m]kingdom,[A]
I must [Bb]go forth
Each father to my children,
and husband to each wife,
et [D]cetera, et cetera, and so [G]forth.
If my Lord in heaven would I show the way,
[C#]Every day I'd try to live another day.
[F#m]If my Lord in heaven would
I show the [B]way,
Every day I'd do my best for
one more [B]day.[F#m]
But Is a puzzlement!
[A]
