Spoon is an American indie rock band from Austin, Texas. The band was formed in late 1993 by lead singer/guitarist Britt Daniel and drummer Jim Eno. Current members also include: Eric Harvey (keyboard, guitar, percussion, backing vocals) and Rob Pope (bass, backing vocals - replaced Joshua Zarbo in 2007).
After releasing their debut LP Telephono on Matador Records, the band signed with Elektra in 1998, but the contract was dropped soon after the band released A Series of Sneaks.

A Dmsus7 Picture yourself, Set up for good in a whole other life A In the mystery zone A Make us a house, Some far away town Dmsus7 A Where nobody will know us well, Where your dad's not around A And all the trouble you look for all your life Dmsus7 A You will find it for sure, In the mystery zone A FmajC Times that we met GmajD A Before we met...hhmmm light on mister (?) FmajC GmajD Times that we met...hmmmm A We'll go there
(F *bass* G) Am and Asus(pluck through whole chorus) To the mystery zone (F *bass* G) Am and Asus Ah the mystery zone
A There goes the rider, At gates of dawn Dmsus7 A He takes no prisoners at all, He'll be there on his own A What gets him going, Off down that road Dmsus7 A Is something he don't understand, ooo the mystery zone A Maybe all he wants, Maybe all he needs Dmsus7 Is to know that the sun don't set A On the mystery zone A FmajC GmajD A How come it feels so familiar When you never been there? A FmajC GmajD A How come it seems so unreachable You never tried to find A (F *bass* G) Am and Asus Never tired to find the mystery zone (F *bass* G) Am and Asus Mystery zone, oooh
(*Another verse and chorus, same stuff)
