[Intro]
G B7 Em C
 
[Chorus]
G
Achievement for the sake of achievement
  B7
Ambition for the sake of ambition
           Em
Oh, if you speak, you better say it like you mean it
   C
Go on and set yourself upon some superficial mission
G    B7
I'm, I’m gonna fight
B7                Em
I'm gonna fight a lion
Em             B7
Oh-oh-oh oh-oooh-oh, yeah-bah-doo-bee
B7                Em
I'm gonna fight a lion
               D7
Oh-ah-oh oh-ahhhh-oh
 
[Verse]
              G
I’ve heard of monks in Tibet who've unlocked their minds
     B7
It's nothing supernatural, there's nothing here divine
     Em
It's a matter of focus, persistent meditation
          C
Keep this state of mind sustained, it's a game of concentration
       G
It's a mystery how the all billion nеuro paths
       B7
In the mind of any fighter guide thе limbs on how to act
       Em
By the rivers of nerves streaming up and down the back
       C
It's a careful calculation, when precisely to attack
 
[Chorus]
G
Achievement for the sake of achievement
  B7
Ambition for the sake of ambition
           Em
Oh, if you speak, you better say it like you mean it
   C
Go on and set yourself upon some superficial mission
G        B7
I'm, I’m gonna fight
B7                Em
I'm gonna fight a lion
Em             B7
Oh-oh-oh oh-oooh-oh, yeah-bah-doo-bee
B7                Em
I'm gonna fight a lion
               D7
Oh-ah-oh oh-ahhhh-oh
 
[Interlude]
G B7 Em C
 
[Verse]
   G
My mind is razor sharp and I've made my body strong
      B7
But a lion comes equipped with a nasty set of claws
     Em
I am struck, I’m stuck standing in awe
       C
At the fire in her eye and the power in her jaw
         G
Oh, it's for dignity, and for the respect of the beast
              B7
That I pit my feeble flesh against the strength of all its teeth
     Em
Sink into me, it's time now for your feast
        C
I find nobility in death, I take no shame in my defeat
 
[Chorus]
         G
Well its achievement for the sake of achievement
  B7
Ambition for the sake of ambition
           Em
Oh, if you speak, you better say it like you mean it
   C
Go on and set yourself upon some superficial mission
G        B7
I'm, I’m gonna fight
B7                Em
I'm gonna fight a lion
Em             B7
Oh-oh-oh oh-oooh-oh, yeah-bah-doo-bee
B7                Em
I'm gonna fight a lion
               D7
Oh-ah-oh oh-ahhhh-oh
